Un grande like a "This leads me to ask what business model colleges can apply in the face of both MOOCs and peer-to-peer knowledge. *How do you mobilize a whole community to educate each other, while maintaining the value of expertise?*" Articolo molto interessante. Unica cosa: dire che Alcibiade, Fedro e Socrate sono i primi esempi di learning by doing mi sembra una vera americanata! ;) On Mon, Dec 10, 2012 at 6:27 PM, J.C. DE MARTIN <demartin@polito.it> wrote:
