(Or maybe this also already exists, in […]

I’ll set aside our desires to be better integrated into the semester curriculum, or museum […]

I meant to finish with: this should be a fruitful topic! MOOCs tie into a lot of interesting discussions of teaching and learning, course design, and public humanities.

How have […]
