Blueprint for a Post-LMS, Part 5

By Michael Feldstein. Posted on March 8, 2015

In parts 1, 2, 3, and 4 of this series, I laid out a model for a learning platform that is designed to support discussion-centric courses. I emphasized how learning design and platform design have to co-evolve, which means, in part, that a new platform isn’t going to change much if it is not accompanied […]

Blueprint for a post-LMS, Part 4

By Michael Feldstein. Posted on March 7, 2015

In part 1 of this series, I talked about some design goals for a conversation-based learning platform, including lowering the barriers and raising the incentives for faculty to share course designs and experiment with pedagogies that are well suited for conversation-based courses. Part 2 described a use case of a multi-school faculty professional development course […]

Blueprint for a post-LMS, Part 3

By Michael Feldstein. Posted on March 6, 2015

In the first part of this series, I identified four design goals for a learning platform that supports conversation-based courses. In the second part, I brought up a use case of a kind of faculty professional development course that works as a distributed flip, based on our forthcoming e-Literate TV series on personalized learning. In […]

Blueprint for a Post-LMS, Part 2

By Michael Feldstein. Posted on March 5, 2015

In the first post of this series, I identified four design goals for a learning platform that would be well suited for discussion-based courses: Kill the grade book in order to get faculty away from concocting arcane and artificial grading schemes and more focused on direct measures of student progress. Use scale appropriately in order […]

With Unizin going public yesterday, I’ve been looking over our three posts at e-Literate to see if there are any corrections or clarifications needed. Unizin: Indiana University’s Secret New “Learning Ecosystem” Coalition Why Unizin is a Threat to edX Unizin: What are the Primary Risks? Based on yesterday’s press release, official web site release and […]

Unizin: What are the primary risks?

By Phil Hill. Posted on May 29, 2014

In Michael’s most recent post on Unizin, the new “learning ecosystem” initiative driven by Indiana University, he asked the question of who would be threatened by the proposed consortium (with the answer of edX). This question assumes of course that Unizin actually succeeds in large part, but what are the primary risks for the initiative […]

Why Unizin is a Threat to edX

By Michael Feldstein. Posted on May 24, 2014

In the week since we published our Unizin exposé, there has been nary a peep from the group to us, or apparently to the traditional news outlets either. When we ran the piece, we emailed Indiana University CIO Brad Wheeler to request comment or corrections. We have not heard back from him yet. Brad, if […]
