• Feb 26: Elizabeth Losh, “The MOOC Moment” 3:30-5:30pm, The Graduate Center, CUNY, Room 9206
  • Connectedness of teaching, technology, research
    • This talk argues that MOOCs themselves might have been remarkably uniform as vehicles for content delivery, but they spurred a valuable diversity of pedagogical reactions among faculty to their particular format for free large-scale distance learning.  Public debate and discussion about MOOCs has spurred a variety of innovative pedagogical experiments in higher education: SPOCs (Small Personalized Online Courses), DOCCs (Distributed Open Collaborative Courses), POOCs (Public Open Online Courses), and many other new forms of online teaching.
