Martin Bean’s 8 lessons for innovators
  1. Be bold. Challenge and don’t take ‘no’ for an answer. Work
     out where you want to be and how you’ll get there.
  2. Get off the mark! Make a start and keep ‘iterating the idea’.
  3. Get the people around you involved. You can’t do it all by
     yourself.
  4. Bring governance with you in real time. Don’t force a fully
     formed idea on to top management, get them involved
     early.
  5. Deadlines matter. Fear of the unknown can easily lead to
     inertia so you need to move quickly on your ideas.
  6. Show leadership. Be prepared to roll up your sleeves and
     get involved.
  7. Enrol early adopters and listen to their ideas.
  8. Go live with a bang! If you don’t have marketing expertise,
     bring on board someone who does.
                                                                            Martin Bean – quoted at

“…most MOOCs work well for
students who are self-
motivated and already fairly
well educated. Worldwide, the
poorest students still don’t
have the background … to
participate in a major way.”

Editor's Notes

  • #7 Children in the room 45% of children discriminate Some of you may have children in the room
  • #15 1.
  • #21 2
  • #30 OLnet participated of the conference E-learning Africa 2010 (Lusaka, Zambia), and also paid a visit to Aisha Project School. The goal was to understand how teachers at Aisha have been using OER with the support of UK funded initiatives. There is a mix of ‘ chalk and talk ’ and the use of technologies to enhance learning at the school, given that the learners have no access to text books. However, the teachers at Aisha have been moving away from chalk and talk and using more enquiry-based learning to teach with OER – indicating that OER can encourage new teaching practices.
  • #31 SeGA setup in 2010 to help improve our response as an organisation across university work to improve processes and solve some long-lasting issues. Help address sharing of responsibility.
