With tuition fees rising, applications down and the annual scramble for places through the clearing system well underway , it seems an appropriate time to re-ignite the debate on the future of Higher Education. Let’s start with yet another acronym: MOOC. If you haven’t heard it yet, then I’ll guarantee that you will do so within the next 12 months. So will MOOCs transform higher education?

Quality check: Is 99.9% good enough?
People are human and that means mistakes are bound to happen.  In fact, few of us get through the workday without making a single error, so should 99.9% be considered good enough?

What’s with the clamour for Yammer?
Today’s post comes courtesy of Roger Francis, MindLeaders services and HR director, who’s been yammering and rather likes it. Oh no, I hear you say, not another social network!
