SchooX OpenStax View, share, and freely adapt educational materials such as courses, books, and reports. OpenStax believes that everyone has something to learn, and everyone has something to teach. Frustrated by the limitations of traditional textbooks and courses, Dr. Richard Baraniuk founded OpenStax (then Connexions) in 1999 at Rice University to provide authors and learners with an open space where they can share and freely adapt educational materials such as courses, books, and reports. Today, OpenStax CNX is a dynamic non-profit digital ecosystem serving millions of users per month in the delivery of educational content to improve learning outcomes. There are tens of thousands of learning objects, called pages, that are organized into thousands of textbook-style books in a host of disciplines, all easily accessible online and downloadable to almost any device, anywhere, anytime.

tech usage in the future Last month I attended the Aspen Institute Education Innovation Forum & Expo in Washington D.C. The event attracted many investors who are planning on investing in the new education technologies. I heard a number of people in attendance propose that the education market is the next "Dot-com" technology growth area. I admit, I'm a bit perplexed because we are in the depth of an economic recession that has reduced funding for public education to the bare minimum. What's Next? But, overall, I am excited about the possibilities that technology can provide to facilitate and manage student learning. I'd like to share with you where I think we will find it and where we will not. Educational technology enthusiasts hope for the magic algorithm that will personalize, manage, and rapidly accelerate student learning though games, simulations, or just plan drilling students. But I doubt we will see a massive takeover of traditional schooling by a technology solution. What's Here Related Resources

Il me semble que personne parmi notre section du groupe B, n'a fait référence à ces deux universités emblématiques de notre nouvelle ère numérique, comme celle dont je viens de donner le lien, "the University of the People". Il existe aussi p2pu.org. Elles se trouvent toutes les deux aux États-Unis: elles sont gratuites, mais on doit tout de même payer pour passer les examens. Il y a probablement beaucoup de personnes parmi vous qui les connaissent, mais j'ai pensé que cela valait quand même la peine d'en insérer une.

Tous les pays développent leurs universités sur le Web. J'aurais aimé une Université internationale sur le Web, mais cela n'existe pas, ou pas encore. A l'heure de la mondialisation, cela serait peut-être intéressant ? Certaines universités, en revanche, prennent la dénomination d'Université Internationale, comme l'Université Internationale de Casablanca, par exemple. by pascalelaurenceducos Feb 6
