Transformation Through Online Learning AndCompetence BuildingDonald M. NORRISStrategic Initiatives, Inc.dmn@strategicintiatives.comPaul LEFREREStrategic Initiatives, Inc.AbstractLearning enterprises in the United States need better tools to address several key challenges: 1) buildingthe capacity <strong>of</strong> graduates to use their knowledge to achieve their career goals, thereby raising nationalproductivity and competitiveness; 2) discovering the best course <strong>of</strong> action for learning enterprises incurrent circumstances and in changing conditions; and 3) stepping up to new challenges such as the LuminaFoundation’s target <strong>of</strong> 60% <strong>of</strong> Americans graduating with high-value <strong>de</strong>grees, certificates or cre<strong>de</strong>ntials.To highlight key issues, we present a five-stage mo<strong>de</strong>l <strong>of</strong> the evolution <strong>of</strong> learning and competence buildingtechnologies. This is groun<strong>de</strong>d in examples <strong>of</strong> current practice and future possibility. It <strong>de</strong>scribes howleading-edge institutions and learning enterprises are using “expeditionary change” to evolve, innovatemore nimbly and establish competitive advantage as they transform. Such changes will be essential toAmerican higher education addressing affordability and establishing financial sustainability.The five-stage mo<strong>de</strong>l highlights how to use the organizational capacities <strong>de</strong>veloped to enable onlinelearning as an instrument for transforming higher education. Until now, many lea<strong>de</strong>rs have failed to graspthe potential <strong>of</strong> orchestrating those capacities to systemically realign learning to the needs <strong>of</strong> the 21stCentury knowledge economy and to adapt to new patterns <strong>of</strong> knowledge sharing. However, today’s socialnetworking, Web 2.0 and learning technologies are facilitating and accelerating transformations: in theproduction functions for learning, roles <strong>of</strong> faculty and mentors, business mo<strong>de</strong>ls, patterns and ca<strong>de</strong>nces <strong>of</strong>interactivity, use <strong>of</strong> open resources and the roles <strong>of</strong> in<strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>nt, “free-range” learners. They are alsoempowering disruptive competitors and enabling closer links between learning, work, and competence.Mo<strong>de</strong>rn knowledge economies have an ever-greater need for individuals who perpetually fill emergingknowledge gaps, using continuous flows <strong>of</strong> fresh knowledge emerging from open innovation and openresearch as well as social network-based communities. Traditional knowledge paths and practices leadingto certificates and <strong>de</strong>grees are important for basic learning and socialization <strong>of</strong> lifelong learners. But theyare ina<strong>de</strong>quate to <strong>de</strong>aling with knowledge gaps and flows at the pace and scale required. By themselvesthey are not the route to institutional sustainability or to the creation <strong>of</strong> large numbers <strong>of</strong> attractive andgraduate-level jobs in new areas.Keywords: Distance Education, Online Education, Blen<strong>de</strong>d (Hybrid) Education, Higher Education, Mash-ups,Disintermediation, Self-directed Learning, Knowledge Gaps, Knowledge Flows, Knowledge Paths,Knowledge Society, Innovation, Entrepreneurship, Open Educational Resources, Open Innovation,Organizational Transformation, Expeditionary Planning, Success Making.<strong>Revista</strong> <strong>de</strong> Informatică <strong>Social</strong>ăanul VII, nr. <strong>14</strong>, <strong>de</strong>cembrie 2010ISSN 1584-384X
