Extrait de l'interview de Clayton Christensen
Do you think education is finally ready for the Internet?”
“I absolutely do. I think that not only are we ready but adoption is occurring at a faster rate than we had thought… We believe that by the year 2019 half of all classes for grades K-12 will be taught online… The rise of online learning carries with it an unprecedented opportunity to transform the schooling system into a student-centric one that can affordably customize for different student needs by allowing all students to learn at their appropriate pace and path, thereby allowing each student to realize his or her fullest potential….”
“The transition by which a new technology transforms the old, or takes it away, is a process, not an event, so almost always you have a hybrid in the middle just like the transition to electronic cars. It’s not unusual…
What’s exciting to me as a teacher is that this presents an opportunity to break down the departments that characterize higher education. For example, God did not dictate from heaven that literature and history are two different fields, but somebody decided they were. He never said calculus needs to be taught independently from chemistry. But someone decided they were different fields. And we teach these things as if they are indeed different from each other. But since I graduated from college I have never used calculus once on its own. I always use it in conjunction with something from another field. We graduate students with the belief that every field is a different one and the day after they graduate they realize oh my god, I can’t use any of these things independently. Online education gives us a clean slate so we can teach calculus in the context of chemistry, music in the context of history, and so on.”

Il est intéressant de voir comment l'université d'Harvard définit son métier et l'innovation qui en découle - Créer du nouveau savoir - tandis que l'université de Phoenix définit son métier et son principe d'innovation par trouver de nouveaux moyens de fournir, ou présenter du savoir..
Par contre, l'article n'aborde pas du tout un aspect émergent, à savoir que tout un chacun peut créer un cours, le commercialiser via internet et enseigner son propre savoir faire. C'est très courant aux USA et cela émerge en France.
Par exemple Olivier Roland commercialise une formation en ligne Blogueur pro dont le chiffre d'affaires ferait rougir un professeur de grande école.
