TRANSFORMING EDUCATION: MOOCs AND MORE
Maryland @ the Newseum
UMD location: Riggs Alumni Hall
Will MOOCs massive open online courses help colleges and universities wrestle with tight budgets? Will they help families face rising tuitions? Or will this innovation prove dangerously disruptive?
Hear from our newest Visiting Future-ists: edX President Anant Agarwal, Coursera MOOC teacher Peter Struck, and MOOC observer Kevin Carey, moderated by the FIA'S "Future-ist in Residence" Dan Russell of Google.
This program has been made possible with generous support from the Robert W. Deutsch Foundation, the Newseum, and the University of Maryland.
