This may be redundant because I’m trying to start a similar conversation at ThatCamp MLA. But I’d be keen to meet up with anyone who\u2019s interested in the problem of scale: How do we move from individual innovation with particular tools & practices to larger adoptions, at the level of a program, project, or even a campus? \u00a0This might well be part of a conversation on MOOCs: Is there such a thing as a studio model for MOOCs, a MOOC that makes makers? If even the social or connectivist MOOCs aren\u2019t the answer, and they likely aren\u2019t, what kind of investment should departments, colleges, and universities be making instead? What would make the innovations of individual faculty more spreadable?<\/p>\n

Key thinkers for the event will be folks like Jim Groom & Tim Owen at UMW, who plan to bring their\u00a0Domain of One\u2019s Own<\/a>\u00a0pilot campus-wide next year (h\/t\u00a0Croxall<\/a>). Or Pete Rorabaugh and Robin Wharton of Hybrid Pedagogy<\/a>. And Rebecca Burnett of Georgia Tech, whose Brittain fellowships have helped re-start the careers of many a humanist (she has won one of the Gates grants for a first-year writing MOOC\u2013very curious to see what that will look like!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This may be redundant because I’m trying to start a similar conversation at ThatCamp MLA.
