Role of the University?

The University Model premise: knowledge is scarce.

Knowledge is no longer scarce. Just ask Google

Do Universities still have a place?

What is the role of the university in the future?

Who do you want to answer this question?

University of Great Knowledge 20. Ending? Moral?

What do you want the ending to be?

What should I, we, the world learn from this?

Edging? Egg Nog? 21. Constructionism "Constructionist learning involves students drawing their own conclusions through creative experimentation and the making of social objects. The constructionist teacher takes on a mediational role rather than adopting an instructionist position. Front of class teaching 'at' students is replaced by assisting them to understandand help one another to understandproblems in a hands-on way." - wikipedia 22. Constructionism: The Test Or 2? 1? 23. Pedagogical Implementation

Teach Pd-extended

Create Framework for Collaboration (wiki, blog, discussion list)

Start with GEM

Teach to the Help Patches

Give Opportunities for Public Performances/Displays

Teach Through Inquiry

Keep in Flexible

Use Analogies/Metaphors

Give Examples

Keep it Fun!

24. Environment for Learning

Demo Everything Live!

Use a Workshop Model

Set the Tone Before The Class Starts

25. Implementation Week 0: Install and Test Week 1: Introduction Week 2: Audio Week 3: Advanced Concepts 26. Wiki

All instructor notes, course mat'ls etc. editable

Students can even edit the Syllabus!

27. Blog

All Assignments go on blog

Students encouraged to copy and credit

Similar to the professional model as well as open source?

An online portfolio of students' work in the class

Section for misc. and a scratch pad

28. Discussion List

All questions go to the list, not to me

Anything goes! (like the Pd list?)

Students are not removed from the list as a matter of course

29. Gem Tutorial

Ask questions rather than give answers

Teach to the help patches

Give examples
