anya kamenetz

her latest talk - i think:

cost out of control
quality - conservative model of ed is disrupted because knowledge is changing so fast

not a map - but a compass

major benes to society:
content
socialization
accreditation
see earlier talk - really wish i could find this video - link is now broken..

content:
consortium of community colleges - Judy Baker
other resources mit, ted talks
open teaching - change the roll of the teacher
George Siemens - 2400 people learning together
Peer 2 Peer - taught by volunteers
umwblogs at uni of mary washington.. post assignments to web so at the end of school have something you can take with you and show employer

need to be proactive and independent to own your own learning
pln - assemble resources, books, blogs, classes, people, 

present self to community
take on tasks at elbows as experts
give back

it's all about community.. very traditional
university = guild
essential is the relationship among the people - not the content
college = group
beehas? for artists
