what happens when you move the books out of the way?
DESCRIPTION
Gave this talk to a group at the Free Library of Philadelphia that convened to "Re-imagine Parkway Central". I talked about my experiences with Indy Hall, Ignite Philly, Bar Camp, etc. The talk was also influenced by these blog posts I wrote in 2009: http://punkave.com/window/2009/01/20/what-should-a-modern-librarys-website-be http://punkave.com/window/2009/01/12/what-should-a-modern-library-beTRANSCRIPT

Alternative University?
Tuesday, July 26, 2011
When broken down to its atomic components, the classroom is an agreement between an instructor and a set of students. The instructor agrees to offer expertise and mentorship, while the students offer their attention and dedication.

The question now becomes what role, if any, the educational institution plays in coordinating any of these components. Students can share their ratings online – why wouldn’t they also share their educational goals? Once they’ve pooled their goals, what keeps them from recruiting their own instructor, booking their own classroom, indeed, just doing it all themselves?
