Outsourcing UC


Senator Steinberg is pushing a bill that will potentially outsource many of the University of California lower-division courses to outside course provides like Udacity and Coursera. Here we see one of the clearest examples of privatizing a public good. The state cuts the UC budget for years, and then the same people who cut the budget say we should now turn to online education to deal with the mess. Of course they add that faculty will have a say, but the question is which faculty, and can they stop a plan that is supported by the university president, the governor, and now the legislature?

As I told people in the governor’s office and various legislative staff, there is no evidence that this will save money or move people through the system in a more efficient manner. There is also ample evidence that the students who need the most individual attention will end up having their courses online. I have urged the Academic Council to fight this move, but it looks like the senate is either being co-opted or pushed aside.

This move is a recipe for administrative bloat and the further undermining of shared governance in the University of California. Already people are questioning the value of a UC degree, and so we must ask, who will fight this change?

  2. I agree that for many of the students who most need the type of high-demand bottleneck courses that are most likely to end up online are the very ones for whom face-to-face instruction is far more effective than online. For the few advanced (experienced and self-motivated) learners who don't manage to take or place out of these courses, online versions may indeed be effective. I think they're the ones the UC President, governor and legislators are thinking of when they push this initiative. And you are right as well that they have no idea of the costs of online courses--I'm sure they imagine some completely autonomous modules that are computer-controlled without human intervention. They (and we) have no idea, but this is something that can be determined: just what does an online course in a particular discipline at a particular level cost to create, offer, and maintain?

Salah satunya ialah nomor telepon aktif yang seringkali akan menciptakan para member merasa risih untuk menyerahkan privasi mereka. Tetapi kenyataannya urusan ini bakal sangat mempermudah kita dalam sekian banyak proses transaksi selanjutnya. Ini dapat dikatakan sebagai proses verifikasi yang sangat aman sebab di era ketika ini masing-masing orang melulu memilih 1 sampai 2 nomor telepon saja. Maka dari tersebut akan paling mudah untuk pihak developer dan kita guna mendapatkan verifikasi yang lebih cepat.
