The dawning era of peer-to-peer education

Technology-enabled peer-to-peer sharing of goods and services has created significant disruption in the business world, and there are already hints about how it might affect education.

However there is also a myriad of questions: What technology is needed ? What kinds of new learning interactions could be enabled ? How would it work with existing learning and teaching practices ? What kinds of effects might it have on the education status quo ?

This lecture begins with a case study of remote mentoring applied to a second-year electrical engineering course, and reflects on nearer-term insights into how students can be assisted in a context where much of their formative self-directed learning occurs. It then progresses to a wider exploration of the learning modes that might be unleashed by peer-to-peer education, an area that is overflowing with opportunities for innovation.
