Let me give you an example: Many schools, colleges and universities have by now implemented a managed learning environment (MLE) sometimes referred to as a virtual learning environment (VLE) or Learning Management System (LMS).

There is also a belief that, just as the music industry of the late 1970s was stagnating, so the education system of the early 21st Century is in need of a reboot. Punk rock revitalised the 70s music scene and, say its adherents, Edupunk can do the same today with our tired education system. Unported License.

I don't want to come off today as making broad sweeping statements about all of education everywhere when I'm very much talking about the education system in the US and the education technology industry in the US. Are they logging into the learning management system? So grain of salt and my apologies and all that. How are they feeling?

Further, students enjoy personalising their online spaces, a task that is not particularly easy or positively discouraged within institutional systems. If they wished to change this kind of restrictive provision and depose the ‘tyranny of the institutional VLE’, universities would need to undergo a radical shift in policy.

We then dove into the learning management system ( LMS in the US; VLE in Europe ). Casey sees it not as a tool for learning, nor much of an administrative tool, but a content dissemination platform, “like a supermarket scanner” (cites Cat Finnegan’s research in the Virginia community college system).

Increasingly academics are circumventing official systems to buy their own machines, or host their own services, often in their own time and at their own expense. There is little room for experimenting with tools beyond the VLE. All of these people require different levels of access to different systems. Simplification.

It takes several hours to learn a systems such as typing on a keyboard, and several more months to become competent to the point of expertise. The user interface on most VLE/LMS technologies is often too complex for students, who spend much more time trying to navigate and discover content than they do actually learning that content.

Many of the other commercially available LMS (learning management systems) and VLE (virtual learning environment) platforms aren’t doing any better. Given the state of many of these courses, it’s no wonder that drop out rates for online learning are so high. And of course Moodle isn’t the only culprit.

EDUPUNK was not about dismantling the education system, he said, but about reorganising the space, and about vitalising learning. There was a serious underpinning philosophy, where students gain a personal space on the web which they can control, and which is the antithesis of the institutional VLE/LMS.

I''ve played the role of evangelist at UMW for almost a decade, and I always hated the term evangelist when used outside of its religious context, so I made a point of reframing edtech as a faith system akin to Cotton Mather''s Puritanism. That said, I had to breakup with EDUPUNK in 2010 because it wasn''t fun any more.
