A MOOC to address the changing focus of a new generation of Learners

Do today's student really want to learn online?  

What are the benefits to them? 

Do traditional aged learners reallly lack communication skills or do they just communicate differently using cell phones, social networking and other technology supported tools.  

This is a research based project.  Identify resources and at least develop a draft presentation on this subject. 

I will post my findings on my blog.
