Nearly everyone I talked to had develped over the years unique materials for thier subjects. Since the leadership was unclear about the legal status of these materials, nearly everyone withheld from uploading. I started the trend of moving outside the institution and installed for 12 colleagues a moodle platform on a variety of pages. Our students would log into our private sites to use the materials. So, sharing is possible, however the institutional environment is key - we were annoyed at rumours that the institution was hoping to keep control of our materials and use them later for commercial VLE activities.</p>Martin Goldberg commented on 'Collaboration 7: Implementing the Wrong Solution'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451f00f69e20168e54feb51970c2012-01-10T20:17:11Z2012-01-10T20:17:11ZMartin GoldbergEwan, I accept the overriding principle: "The quality of the teacher is the number one factor in the improvement of...<p>Ewan, I accept the overriding principle: "The quality of the teacher is the number one factor in the improvement of an education system, collaboration is the key factor in improving the quality of that teacher." I might use the phrase "a key factor" to qualify the relationship. Indeed I think this high level conversation is invaluable to moving education forward. I also thought the use of examples from outside education informative and valuable. It is a technique I use regularly in my blog www.postdewey.ca. What might make your Collaboration Series more valuable for me is describing more fully how the six factors that inhibit successful collaboration play out in educational settings.</p>
