Third party content…

Over the last week, I’ve conducted a variety of workshops on blogs, wikis, audio and video online, and web conferencing. The message I’ve been putting forward: Educators should be less concerned with creating digital content and more with finding and using what already exists. TedTalks, OCW, OpenLearn (and many siblings), podcasts (odeo or an iTunes university like Stanford), and numerous other content sources offer high quality content. An educators challenge is one of finding, selecting, aggregating, and assisting students in navigating the content already available. A similar trend is already occurring in news and media industries.
