Listen to the quote of The Little Prince, written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Studying the MOOC of eLearning
and Digital Cultures has made me think learning as a personal way of working
and acting. And at the same time learning is also social. Use of social media
includes a set of ideas about transformation and social gathering, mass
participation, user-generated content, openness, flexibility, collaboration and
community.
In this MOOC course the open materials and
transparency of learning processes have been very helpful for me. It has been fascinating to learn a lot in practice about pedagogy: there have not been
teachers or instructors, but coaches and peer tutors.
The Utopia of the future of
learning for me is human beings and machines working together for better world.
One hint of this progress is e.g. a classmate robot, which allows a student attend classroom remotely.
I see the Dystopia of the
future of learning as world where ”Every Brother is watching you”. Fear of openness
has restricted the innovative use of online resources and networks. People
refuse to use web-based technology inside of classroom context and for
educational purposes.
