Higher Education Innovation & Open, Connected Learning: Back To The Future
Higher education needs to move away from closed learning management systems and instead embrace open, connected learning on the web. The current model of "delivering instruction" focuses too much on content distribution and not enough on learner-centered principles. True learning happens through open exchange and participation, not passive content consumption. Educators should claim their own domains, use open web tools like blogs and wikis, and focus on socially meaningful knowledge-rich experiences that foster sharing and collaboration beyond the classroom.

Interjections
Interjections are exclamations that express emotion and often interrupt or add emphasis to a sentence. Common examples include "Wow!", "Oh no!", and "Hey!". Interjections can use exclamation points or commas. They are commonly used in creative writing, narratives, poetry, and letters but are generally not appropriate for academic papers where information is prioritized over emotion.
