Tech-Connect Brown Bag Talk, Harrison-Small Auditorium, University of Virginia, 1 May 2013 This talk is about my experiences developing open courses with Udacity, and makes the case that scale enables new and exciting opportunities in education because of the economics of amortizing development cost over a large number of students, but more importantly because of the possibility for scale to produce effective learning communities and inspire amazing contributions. The last part of the talk is about what the University of Virginia should do as a leading public institution.
