Rebels in the Learning Democracy's battle with the Training Monarchy have unveiled a new viral learning weapon that leverages key Learning Democracy ideals - learner autonomy, responsibility, control, a personalized experience, and the ability to gather and share knowledge from other learners in an open environment. The new weapon of choice, a MOOC (Massive Open Online Course), is a free online course that is open-ended and could include thousands of participants using a variety of social tools like Facebook, Google+, Twitter, websites, blogs, discussion boards, etc. They become viral as word of the MOOC spreads quickly through social networks fanning the flames of democracy!
