The Future of my Sad Story (?)
• 2005 - Sakai completes and is installed at 20 universities :)
• 2006 - I take a few months, reinvent ClipBoard and integrate it into Sakai so people can *finally* truly use it
• 2007 - Hundreds of people try my idea and it turns out it was a bad idea - so I invent something else…
• Moral: I have been waiting 10 years, and changed three jobs to find a framework to deploy my idea so people could use it. Turns out the only way it was going to happen was to help build it myself.

February 2007 - I quit Sakai in anger before I am fired in anger

• In 2006 Richard N. Katz was retiring as the President of Educause
• He made a video with a series of bold predictions about the changes that we would see in the world of education over the next 14 years

• A layered approach allows the problem of designing a network to be broken into more manageable sub problems
• Best-known model: TCP/IP—the “Internet Protocol Suite”
• There was also a 7 layer OSI: Open System Interconnection Model

Increasing difficulty...
• Week 1: What was the mistake made by the German Enigma operators that allowed Alan Turing to craft a strategy to break coded German messages?
• Week 5: When do wireless devices receive their serial numbers (i.e. MAC or Ethernet addresses)?
• Week 8: How does your computer typically know the public key of a certificate authority during secure communications?

My Thoughts on #IHTS
![Page 42: Massively Open Online Courses - Beyond the Hype](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb896c4a7959372d8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Be an Introductory Course
• We need low-stakes "freshman" courses in Coursera
• How to behave
• How to use the software
• How to write
• Figure out technical issues
• How to learn from others and help others learn....
![Page 43: Massively Open Online Courses - Beyond the Hype](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb896c4a7959372d8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Be an Open Learning Community
• Open Source works well when there is a "Benevolent Dictator"
• There needs to be real and enforced rules - but as few as possible
• Those in power must not hide behind their power and must share their power with those who show the right behavior
• Must make valued behaviors "infectious" / "amplified"
![Page 44: Massively Open Online Courses - Beyond the Hype](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb896c4a7959372d8b45fe/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Teach the Teachers
• I don't beleive that all students in the world should consider me their teacher in this space
• I wrote a "book"- I want others to adopt it and re-mix it
• Related to making a "learning community"

• Volunteer students from prior sessions
• Culture forms very rapidly

Is there a business model?
Coursera is approaching 4 Million Students - Just over a year
4 million users x 5% = 200,000 paying200,000 x $50 = $10,000,000 $2,500,000 to universities $500,000 to faculty
7,000 active students, 407 signature track407 * $40 = $16,280$16,280 x 5% = $814

A Few Predictions
• Online "continuation" Masters degrees have a limited lifetime
• For-profit undergraduate online programs will become very niche
• Residential schools must leverage being together - do more
• Remedial / preparation / just in time / continuing ed / professional development - wil be free an high quality
• Truly democratizing education will happen - but require re-commitment to open educatonal resources and remixable resources
