Who wants a self-paced, free, world class education?<\/strong><\/a> — from OpenSesame.com<\/p>\n

From DSC:<\/strong>
\nI work within higher education…so why am I posting this? For several reasons:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. To help those folks who may not have the funding to attend a college or university.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. To help those students who are already in a college or university and who want further resources on a particular discipline.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. For lifelong learners — and for those who love to learn — who want to pick up further knowledge re: a discipline.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. To prompt leadership\/management within higher education to talk about their strategies in how to respond to this game-changing trend\/environment. Such disruptive trends can be opportunities or threats.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. It’s published at OpenSesame.org — an organization that is forming another online marketplace\/exchange that involves education.
    \n<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. It relates to my thoughts on The Forthcoming Walmart of Education<\/a> (and also here<\/a>). Something that all universities and colleges will have to deal with…sooner or later.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
