Hi, I would love to attend this event, but Coventry is an ocean away from me. Are there provisions to attend via Web conference or at least record and disseminate? Looking forward to your response (and loving what I see at #disruptivemedia), Robert Grégoire Développement d’affaires et recherche/Business Development & Research Groupe des technologies de l'apprentissage<http://web.umoncton.ca/umcm-gta/blogue/> (GTA)/Learning Technologies Group Direction générale des technologies Université de Moncton Téléphone : (506) 858-4971 Courriel : [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> ID Skype : robert.gregoire_Dieppe Google +<https://plus.google.com/u/0/104854639986011004032/posts> [H_DIRECTION_GENERALE_TECHNOLOGIES-250] Pédagogie-Technologie-Innovation [Description : Description : logodiigo] <http://groups.diigo.com/group/DGT-GTA> [oiseau] <https://twitter.com/#!/RobbieRobSki> [Description : Description : logosyoutube] <http://www.youtube.com/user/gtaudem> De : Open Educational Resources [mailto:[log in to unmask]] De la part de Daniel Villar-Onrubia Envoyé : 12 novembre 2014 15:41 À : [log in to unmask] Objet : Open Education: Condition Critical Dear all, I hope this event is of interest to many of you. Best wishes, Dr Daniel Villar-Onrubia Online International Learning Programme Manager Coventry University - Centre for Global Engagement [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielvillaronrubia The Centre for Disruptive Media presents: Open Education: Condition Critical A panel exploring opportunities to critically and creatively experiment with different ideas of what the university and education can be http://disruptivemedia.org.uk/ Thursday November 20th 4:30-6:30pm Coventry University Disruptive Media Learning Lab 3rd floor Frederick Lanchester Library Panellists: Sean Dockray (The Public School) Richard Hall (De Montfort University Leicester) Shaun Hides (Coventry University) Sharon Irish (University of Illinois/FemTechNet) Pauline van Mourik Broekman (Mute) Free entrance Please register at: http://criticalopeneducation.eventbrite.co.uk<http://criticalopeneducation.eventbrite.co.uk/> What for decades could only be dreamt of is now almost within reach: the widespread provision of free online education, regardless of a student’s geographic location, financial status or ability to access conventional institutions of learning. Yet for all the hype-cycle that has been entered into over MOOCs, many experiments with Open Education (OE) do not appear to be designed to challenge the becoming business of the university or alter Higher Education in any really fundamental way. If anything, they seem more likely to lead to a two-tier system, in which those who can’t afford to pay (so much) to attend a traditional university, or belong to those groups who prefer not to move away from home (e.g. lower-income families), have to make do with a poor, online, second-rate alternative education produced by a global corporation. Open Education: Condition Critical will thus examine some of the opportunities that exist for experimenting, critically and creatively, with very different ideas of what the university and education can be in the 21st century. In doing so, rather than focusing on the 2012 batch of extremely publicity-savvy xMOOCs (Edx, Udacity, FutureLearn etc.), it will draw attention to a range of more radical developments in the Open Education arena. They include The Public School, FemTechNet’s DOCCs (Distributed Open Collaborative Courses), the self-organised ‘free universities’ associated with the Occupy, anti-austerity and student protests, and even so-called ‘pirate’ libraries such as libgen.org<http://libgen.org/> and aaaaarg.org<http://aaaaarg.org/>. Open Education: Condition Critical has been organised to mark the publication of Open Education: A Study in Disruption (London: Rowman and Littlefield International, 2014), co-authored by Coventry University’s Open Media Group and Mute Publishing as a critical experiment with both collaborative, processual writing and concise, medium-length forms of shared attention.
