Online learning is disruptive - in the "Clayton Christensen" sense. It changes the field for all, just as the personal computer changed the world of mainframe and mini-computers of the 1970s. University of Illinois Center for Online Research and Service Associate Director Shari Smith has studied, presented and published in the area of online learning for inter-institutional collaborations over the past half dozen years. She will lead our discussion this week.
Live presentation
On Thursday, August 11, at 2:00 pm Eastern, 1:00 pm Central, noon Mountain; 11:00 am Pacific time in the U.S. - 7:00 pm London time, we will host a live Web conference on the weekly topic. We plan to provide hundreds of streams of the "live" Thursday sessions in both flash format and non-flash (mobile) format so that participants can view the panels. A Twitter back channel will also be encouraged for ongoing discussion of the panel.
