Hello friends,
I’d like to invite you to join a webinar on Friday 14 March from 11 am to 12noon GMT – The Pedagogy of MOOCs --- Grainne Conole and I will facilitate. Below is a schedule we hope to follow during the webinar. In addition to giving us a
chance to discuss and argue MOOC pedagogies and shape where open education is going, this webinar is a kind of announcement of the eMundus project which, among other things, maps out cases of universities forming partnerships to help along open educational
practices, worldwide (http://www.emundus-project.eu/). In fact, this blog post lists a whole series of eMundus-sparked webinars happening during Open Ed Week:
