__Getting on Track with Next-Generation Learning Methods and Systems__

* Current version 1.x syllabus assumes place-based learning;
* Version 2.x will suit any learning scenario
* Review [[OERu>>url:http://oeruniversitas.org/||title="OERu"]]  and consider collaboration opportunities (EOR is a consortium and has a foundation)
** Should contact Wayne Macintosh in New Zealand, founder of OER Foundation
* Could expand the foundations module to address open methods of governance and of finance
* [[Openness Constituent Group>>url:http://www.educause.edu/discuss/information-technology-management-and-leadership/openness-constituent-group||title="Openness Constituent Group"]] at [[EduCause>>url:http://www.educause.edu/||title="EduCause"]]
* It's useful that all this is in a free modular and extensible course rather than book
* Good that the syllabus functions as a combined pointer and repository of content, from which anyone can pull info for a course
* Nice fit with UNESCO [[Open and Distance Learning>>url:http://www.unesco.org/new/en/unesco/themes/icts/lifelong-learning/open-and-distance-learning/||title="Open and Distance Learning"]]
