Thanks for the feedback! That's exactly what we're hoping to do, create the "glue" around all the great content that's out there!
One question: How important are the credentials of the "expert" to you?
- andrewguenther 12y agoTo me, the credentials of the "expert" are very important. They are the only indication I have going into an online course that the person who built it has any idea what they're talking about.
- gautambay 12y agoThanks! What are the ideal credentials that will give you confidence in the curriculum?
- andrewguenther 12y agoExtensive industry experience or a PhD in the subject, the same I would expect out of someone teaching in a traditional university or community college.
- rjtavares 12y agoDefinitely industry experience over academic experience. We've all seen academics giving bad advice because they don't know what the industry does. IMO, online learning is all about practical knowledge.
- ths291 12y agoThe awesome thing here is that experts in a particular area ALREADY likely keeping tabs on the best resources available. This could be a way for them to publicly opine on their favorite path, and overall their effort would be much lower than, say, building an online course from scratch themselves. It's win-win for them, 1) personal branding, 2) credit for the curation. Also - I'd love to see a learning path for information security / privacy.
