项目摘要

This project will establish and evaluate an innovative educational approach where a large and diverse group of students develop their general creativity using a web-based, online learning environment. Unique to the proposed learning environment is that it provides automated grading, using proven techniques of computer-based peer review, while engaging students in a discipline-based fine arts curriculum. The environment will be designed to handle very large classes and to move students through the course content autonomously (without an instructor), automatically and asynchronously within a schedule of content delivery and creative assignments.This new approach to education will establish a method of teaching and learning that could completely change, in some instances, the landscape of accessibility and availability of education. All that is required is a community of learners agreeing on participation in a pre-designed and broadly scheduled learning process (thus becoming a cohort). A cohort can be a group of high school seniors, a group of new Army recruits, an online community of home-schooled students, a group of senior citizens (or any life-long learners), or any combination of these. One could envision a variety of open source courses developing around the explosive amount of content now freely available. Autonomous cohort learning is one solution to the burgeoning growth in learners across the globe, and a way to guide large groups of learners to realize their individual creative potentials.

该项目将建立和评估一种创新的教育方法，使大量不同的学生使用基于网络的在线学习环境来发展他们的一般创造力。独特的拟议的学习环境是，它提供了自动评分，使用基于计算机的同行评议的成熟技术，同时从事学生在学科为基础的美术课程。该环境将被设计为能够处理非常大的班级，并在内容交付和创造性作业的时间表内自动和异步地引导学生自主地（没有教师）学习课程内容。这种新的教育方法将建立一种教学方法，在某些情况下，这种方法可以完全改变教育的可访问性和可用性。所需要的只是一个学习者社区同意参与预先设计和广泛安排的学习过程（从而成为一个群体）。一个队列可以是一组高中毕业生，一组新兵，一个在家上学的学生的在线社区，一组老年人（或任何终身学习者），或这些的任何组合。人们可以想象各种开源课程围绕着现在免费提供的爆炸性数量的内容开发。自主群组学习是解决地球仪学习者迅速增长的一种方法，也是引导大量学习者实现个人创造潜力的一种方式。
