			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>These quotes are not my own but I wholeheartedly agree:<br />
&#8220;Whatever replaces the LMS needs to help you aggregate,  collect, organize, store, and view in different ways what you find in  the outside world.  From this raw, collected stuff &#8230;eventually comes good   creative, imaginative thinking.</p>
<p>Why not abandon tired environments built around quiz builders and grade  books and document delivery and find a way to bring the intellectual  vitality of higher education, particularly as it is expressed in our  students’ work, out into the world where it can find real audiences,  spark real conversation, and serve as the foundation of a life’s work?</p>
<p>We enjoy exploring the massive potential that still lies ahead for a  whole new way of delivering courses online. We feel the urgency of this  effort to liberate students, faculty, and universities from the  stultifying, even oppressive systems of “learning management” that  continue to flourish in higher education, even when resources are  disappearing and the prices keep going up.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Using the web in higher education is probably the most talked about subject in online education today.  People have so many divergent ideas on how the web should be used or not used.  Don&#8217;t even get started talking about FERPA with online educators and administrators!  What I don&#8217;t understand is why isn&#8217;t there room for everybody?  How come we can&#8217;t all have ideas that work?  Why do we have to be boxed in to the LMS?  Why are we so afraid to go out into the world &#8230; garner the great information and ideas that exist or are emerging and bring it back to the online classroom?  That&#8217;s why I love the thought of disruption.  Disruptive Technology.  Just the sound of those two words together get my juices flowing!  Let&#8217;s disrupt the status quo!  It&#8217;s easy to stay in our comfort zones, our walled gardens, but let&#8217;s venture out.</p>
