The Brave New World of Online Learning: Amy Collier at TEDxStanford

Still not sure if online learning represents more hype or hope? Amy Collier has a fresh perspective about open online learning and its role in education.
"... (T)he words 'open' and 'online learning' are probably some of the most abused words in education right now. By 'open' I mean that at its very core it should be accessible to as many people as possible. But that’s just the beginning. Because I think 'accessible' can be pushed to reimaginable, editable, changeable, so that ideas can continue to grow. By 'online' I mean that web technologies can connect people to information and to each other. And by 'learning' I mean that it needs to significantly impact the way people think, what they do, what they say."
