Experimenting With Open Online Office Hours -Joshua Kim, Inside Higher Ed

A primary reason that we are dipping our toes into open online learning at my institution is to create opportunities for experimentation. There is something that is liberating about free. What we earn from providing zero cost educational opportunities for lifelong learners is the right to try new things, to take some educational risks, and to learn as we go. An example of experimentation and learning that I’ve been watching at my institution is the use of Google Hangouts On Air for open online office hours. https://www.insidehighered.com/blogs/technology-and-learning/experimenting-open-online-office-hours
