ABSTRACTWill open education replace traditional higher education, or augment it? Digital innovation in the higher education sector is fuelling speculation about the transformation of higher education and the future role of universities. Much of the speculation makes questionable implicit assumptions about current and future business models in the higher education sector. This conceptual paper applies an innovation management perspective to critically examine the use and misuse of the business model concept in the context of digital innovation in the higher education sector. Using Raymond’s metaphor of the cathedral and the bazaar which contrasted traditional commercial software development (the cathedral) with open source software development (the bazaar). We analogise this relationship with the relationship between ‘cathedral-type’ business models in traditional higher education (e.g. universities) and ‘bazaar-type’ business models in open education (e.g. open educational resource publishers). Using the historical perspective we now have on the software industry’s evolution we critique the ubiquitous replacement narrative of destruction and disruption of the sector, and propose an alternative narrative of interdependence and mutual innovative catalysis. We predict that higher education ecosystems will be based on synergistic relationships between organisations that represent many gradations on the continuum between ‘cathedral-type’ and ‘bazaar-type’ organisations. 相似文献

Reducing student dropout from school is one of the most important challenges faced by the education system. This study examines
the effectiveness of a Local Authority Information Center (LAIC) that was developed in Israel to help prevent this phenomenon.
The research population embraced 418 regular attendance officers (RAOs), educators dealing with students dropping out and
with those who at risk of dropping out. The RAOs were divided into an experimental group, that executed its work using the
LAIC, and a control group that accomplished its work manually. The research findings show that the use of an LAIC system reduced
the dropout rate and raised the number of students studying to the school’s satisfaction. This improvement even intensified
3 years later when the size of the experimental group was increased. The RAOs in the experimental group employ most of the
LAIC’s facilities and they present positive attitudes towards the LAIC’s contribution to their work. The LAIC system seems
to have a real and direct impact on reducing dropping out. 相似文献

Seductive details are highly interesting information tangential to course objectives. The inclusion of seductive details generally harms performance on recall tests, but few studies have used multimedia training or investigated effects on performance on recognition tests or transfer tasks. We conducted two studies using computer‐based training, instructing college students to use either Excel or Word mail merge. Contrary to most prior results, we found no negative effect for seductive details on recognition tests, and we found a facilitative effect on transfer performance. We discuss implications for theories of learning and transfer, and practical implications for instructional design and delivery. 相似文献
