Results of #EDCMOOC

Saw the results of the assessment details today. Very inspiring. For me this form of online education has been quite interesting. The fact that there was a team of teachers of which no-one was a 'star' professor - was the bonus and guarantee of keeping it human.

. As a librarian I wonder how MOOCs will evolve and how librarians will get involved. In the case of the Edinburgh EDCMOOC I could imagine librarians will try to find long lasting, sustainable access to the literature presented. What will the role of publishers be, and what will happen with individual contracts between teacher/authors, universities and publishers? Superficially one could say, this is only about money, but on another level also about academic freedom and independence of the teacher is central director, producer of the education.
