The Disseminary

Various authors, Oct 15, 2004

Scott Leslie passes this link along, noting from the site's description: "The Disseminary stands for an approach to education and educational materials apart from the constraints of institutional education: credits, fees, restrictive copyright limitations, grades, and other limitations. TheCRLFproject envisions a variety of educational resources offered at no charge, for no formal credit. Such resources may in the long run include publications, asynchronous seminar discussions (kept available in archives), chats, interviews, audio and video recordings." The model of free and open learning, of course, is the important thing, though it is worth noting in passing the use of the model to provide what might be called alternative education. Thin edge of the wedge.
