Designing the Online Collaboratory for the Global Social Benefit Incubator - Pedro Hernández-Ramos, et al; Innovate
Pedro Hernández-Ramos, James L. Koch, Albert Bruno, and Eric Carlson describe the online collaboratory planned for the Global Social Benefit Incubator (GSBI), an international education program designed to serve social benefit entrepreneurs working in the fields of education, health, economic development, the environment, and equality around the world, primarily in developing countries.... Key objectives for this developmental research project include the design or adaptation of online tools that support distributed knowledge construction, skill development, communication, and collaboration for learners with different backgrounds, capabilities, language skills, interests, and priorities. The authors posit that project outcomes would be meaningful at two complementary levels: pedagogical innovations addressing heterogeneous adult learner populations and innovations in the design of online learning environments.
