Mark Guzdial: "The author's point about online courses 'lacking the third dimension' (social, face-to-face interactivity) is a good one (and that's where OpenStudy comes in), but the side point he makes is more interesting to me. The media of online courses just is nowhere near what it needs to be! Powerpoint slides, PDF tests, and no feedback is just abysmal, and we can do so much better!" And then there's the stuff we've been doing with Connectivism and web radio and all of that, and I think there is a third dimension, but you have to kind of break a few rules to get to it.
