The green fields that lie beyond content

by P

I was happy to see Brandon Muramatsu at the OCWC Vietnam meeting and get some time to hang out, check out the latest gadges (geek!) and go to his presentation. He asked the audience – “what would you like to be able to do with MIT OCW?” Turns out he and Vijay Kumar (who is on the P2PU advisory group) are plotting something called Greenfield that would bolt a few useful services onto a copy of the MIT OCW archive. Very exciting for P2PU and I tracked him down after his presentation for a short chat about the project.

He was nice enough to offer his digital camera to record – and, voila, video blog number 2. As I am trying to better understand the value of video (thanks Stian and John for comments) this conversation approach definitely makes a lot more sense to me.

Leave a comment if you want to meet me in an exotic location to talk about open education! And I promise I’ll get better at keeping my dopplr account up to date.
