@jakeschwartz Good point that the word "students" doesn't entirely fit most MOOC participants. What do you call those who take GA classes? 6 hours ago
Excellent challenge from this morning's minyan: compare relationship status and profile options on Facebook, J-Date, and Christian Mingle. 7 hours ago

True dat. What data should we collect? RT @NeilCromby: The data being created from MOOC learning is going to be fascinating. 7 hours ago
@shoutingloudly That's why we teach MBAs about ethics & responsibility. But thoughtfully, not just "don't be evil, kids!" 7 hours ago
@NeilCromby Also, many MOOC participants don't finish all the assessments but don't "opt out." It's just different. 7 hours ago
@NeilCromby It's worth asking why higher % complete some MOOCs than others, and it's a challenge to those who see MOOCs replacing courses. 7 hours ago
@disastrid There is no "whole idea" of MOOCs any more than there is a "whole idea" of lectures. Or of college. 7 hours ago
A: calling everyone who registers for free & doesn't get a certificate a "dropout." RT @ddt: What drives 90% dropout rate of #MOOC courses? 7 hours ago
Fascinating discussing ethics of investment banking with 1st year MBA students. Glad they aren't the amoral monsters I sometimes read about. 7 hours ago
