Karen Fasimpaur has a new blog post about Mozilla collaborating with Seneca college. The project involves two classes that make modifications to Firefox. Along with her commentary, Fasimpaur also links to an audio interview with David Humphrey from Mozilla about the project. From the blog post:
My thoughts….This sounds pretty much like a technical product development course. I’m thinking of how you could adopt this model for education. Take the “open pedagogy” approach and have a grad level ed course on developing open educational resources collaboratively. This could use parts of both what Wiley did with his open ed course and parts of WikiEducator’s Learning4Content idea…but with a more practical project-building focus.
