The document discusses aspects of providing online education programs with a focus on cooperative online learning. It describes Morten Flate Paulsen's work developing theories of cooperative freedom and transparency in online education. NKI Nettstudier, where Paulsen worked, aims to provide individual flexibility within a learning community. Students are encouraged to cooperate and share work publicly, though there are risks to transparency that must be balanced with privacy.

37. Translated by Google from www.nki.no/pp/ViviHurtley I was accepted as a psychology student at the university, but had no interpreter, so I chose to study online to combine family life and education. I need a sign language interpreter to follow traditional lectures, since I am deaf. So it is ideal with NKI, since I do not need an interpreter.

Assess this answer Rank 2: Ole Olsen : Gating kan stimulere studenter til å bidra med nyttig informasjon fordi de selv ønsker å få tilgang til informasjon fra andre. Assess this answer Rank 3: Ola Nordmann : Etter å ha hørt Morten Flate Paulsens foredrag oppfatter jeg det slik at Gating betyr betinget tilgang til kooperative ressurser.
