Anne Fox :: Blog :: Now that's what I call differentiation!

October 05, 2008

I was interested to find out that a course is being run in Ning about Web 2.0 tools in business. I am curious as to how a course can be administered in Ning and so have joined up. Find it at http://workliteracy.ning.com/ What is also interesting is that participants have the opportunity of three levels of commitment.

1. Spectator

2. Joiner/collector

3. Creator

And so each level gets a different task. Now that's what I call differentiation! This is only good for life long learning activities unfortunately and could not be accommodated in a an exam-oriented course. There is another model though and that is George Siemens and Stephen Downes Connectivism course where there are two levels of involvement, one of which is the engaged and active level leading to certification.

Keywords: collector, connectivism, creator, differentiation, joiner, spectator, work literacy
