There is a continuing discussion and investigation of the idea of social isolation and community engagement in a variety of texts and studies.  One of the original works  was Robert Putnam&#8217;s Bowling Alone : The Collapse and Revival of American Community.
The general belief, supported by many of Putnam&#8217;s cited studies, is that people are less [...]]]></description>

Yes, I do truly love my Prius, but here I am discussing another kind of hybrid: a course that involves both online and classroom learning. An Inside Higher Ed report of new research from South Texas College indicates that 82 percent of students in hybrid courses were successful (that is, that got an A, B, [...]]]></description>

Following up on a theme discussed in a recent PowerProfs post on the evolution of educators from a stand and deliver classroom teachers to a supercharged E-mentors using a variety of online tools, I read this article in the NY Times with interest:

An Inside Higher Ed blog Demand and Supply By Joshua Kim asks questions we here at PowerProfs have pondered:
&#8220;Why do students seem content with a lecture based class system? Why aren&#8217;t students asking for creative course projects that use media and multiple intelligences, rather than the traditional end-of-term paper?&#8221;
In our research on best practices for [...]]]></description>

Inside Higher Ed ran an interview with Curtis J. Bonk, a professor of instructional systems technology at Indiana University, and author of the book The World Is Open: How Web Technology is Revolutionizing Education. After discussing the open education movement, and outlining some factors or &#8220;openers&#8221; that are facilitating this transition in education, Bonk ventured [...]]]></description>

In January,   Ann and I had the  good fortune to meet many of you during the ELI annual conference in San Antonio.  That was the first of three events I&#8217;ve attended in as many months which have given me a look at three conferences and how each represents a piece of [...]]]></description>
