Abstract of Minnowbrook -- the Virtual University Presentation
We describe some use of object web technologies and educational business models needed to allow Professors to live in Minnowbrook and teach to students around the world ….
I will assume that this group will provide communication technology
I will focus on curricula and software issues
This model will succeed because it will provide more cost effective and higher quality learning environments
It disassociates dormitory, mentoring and teaching roles of Universities
It can be done now but Universities will prevent for a while as they own right to give certified “certificates” and won’t allow Minnowbrook to give “for credit” courses
