Along with the rapid rise of MOOCs, I've wondered why composition programs have not leveraged their numbers to create local-scaled versions. At the very least, these local versions (LOOCs?) could provide competition to what might be a formidable challenge from those global vendors in the future.</p><p>As you mention above, the platforms need to allow for a host of genres, and I would stress that those genre need also include lists, collections, bibliographies. These online environments might be some kind of mashup between Tumblr (modular but also connected, tag-able across the the entire site) and one of the bibliographic type platforms (Zotero, Diigo, Delecious, etc).</p><p>In any case, just a few thoughts.</p>GuestSun, 31 Mar 2013 14:52:26 -0000
