The idea is to create a website that helps parents with small children (newborn to age 3) to establish small communities to help look after each other's children.
Everyone is talking about the need to motivate and engage learners. This is true in face-to-face
classrooms and even more true in online environments. Many students are unhappy due to bland online
content and unimaginative activities. Many others are bored since the course does not utilize current
technologies. They love their iPads, iPhones, and other mobile technologies and want their instructors
to utilize them. Some feel that their instructors have not addressed their preferred learning approaches.
They want hands-on activities as well as time to explore the resources they find the Web. All they simply
want is more variety, or more specifically, they want ‘TEC-VARIETY.’ Bonk’s new instructional design
model for online learning — TEC-VARIETY — will break online instructors and students out of boring
online learning. This session will outline dozens of active learning ideas and solutions that motivate and
engage online learners in deeper learning experiences.

If learning maths requires a teacher, where did the first teachers come from?
or
Why (and how) did biological evolution produce mathematicians?
Presentation at Symposium on Mathematical Cognition AISB2010
Part of the Meta-Morphogenesis Project. See also this discussion of toddler theorems:

Evolution of human mathematics from earlier abilities to perceived, use and reason about affordances, spatial possibilities and constraints.
The necessity of mathematical truth does not imply infallibility of mathematical reasoning. (Lakatos).
Toddlers discover theorems without knowing it. Later they may learn to reflect on and talk about what they have learnt. Compare Annette Karmiloff-Smith on "Representational re-description".
Why is it still so hard to give robots and AI systems the ability to reason spatially as mathematicians do (except for simple special cases, e.g. where space is discretised.)
A thesis written by @josephinelipp and @alexandrecorda about Social Media and the Luxury industry, and their complex relationship.
