A number of bloggers have provided commentary on Open Education Conference 2009. Michael Korcuska provides a list of the highlights for him. George Siemens weighs in on the future of universities and their relationship to open education. Tony Hirst shows visualizations of conference Twitter use. As a reminder, all conference sessions are available through ustream. From Siemens’ post:
The research role of universities, due to its integration with government and policy, will morph and change, but will not disappear. Teaching is what is most at risk. Can a social network – loosely connected, driven by humanistic ideals – serve a similar role to what university classrooms serve today?
Readers are encouraged to add links to more commentary through the comments.
