Social Media & Peer Learning | Berkeley

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Howard Rheingold offers a glimpse of the future of high-end online learning in which motivated self-learners collaborate via a variety of social media to create, deliver, and learn an agreed curriculum: a mutant variety of pedagogy that more closely resembles a peer-agogy.

Rheingold proposes that our intention should be to teach ourselves how to teach ourselves online, and to share what we learn.

Howard Rheingold is a writer and designer who was among the first wave of creative thinkers who saw, in computers and then in the Internet, a way to form powerful new communities.
