Voor mijn afstudeeronderzoek ...Beste meneer Sloep,<br /><br />Voor mijn afstudeeronderzoek ben ik bezig met het bewerkstelligen van leernetwerken in het buitenland. Nu heb ik al een aantal van uw artikelen gelezen en zie dat uw kennis erg relevant is voor het opzetten van het leernetwerk. Nu vraag ik mij af of u mogelijk tijd heeft voor een kort interview?<br /><br />Mocht u geïnteresseerd zijn dan hoor ik het graag.<br /><br Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18443930962857777968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620571313898910998.post-85274237520620841962013-06-26T09:46:42.702+02:002013-06-26T09:46:42.702+02:00Thanks for your comment Anne.

It is precisely the fact that venture capital sponsored MOOCs are on the rise and thus might end publicly funded (higher) education that worries me. It worries me because, as I try to argue in my blog, education should remain a responsibility of society as a whole and not be made subservient to the aimPeter B.

Sometimes I blog about something I read, but that I usually do via scoop.it. So, blogs are more about original ideas, scoops more comments on what I read.

However, in MOOCs this comes to the fore in an unprecedented way, since they (or at least the ones I focus on here) depend on venture capital for their funding. edX is a different case, funded by Harvard itself, with the aim of Peter B.

If (the revised version of) that taxonomy represents an adequate hierarchical categorization of what there is too learn, it should help make sense of what you can and cannot learn with MOOCs.

If big xMOOCs become prevalent, teachers can do more activities focusing on achieving upper tiers of Bloom's taxonomy in their classes, which will be beneficial to both learners and teachers.
