MarketScope for Content Courseware, 2007
At some point a testing/ certifying authority (Kaplan maybe) will begin assessments for consumers who complete home/ informal group study courses. At some point study course notes and homework will attach themselves to one or more social network profiles. Tickets to college classroom lectures will be sold through Ticketmaster. A lucky few will buy a season pass to an MIT class only to pass the Kaplan home study certification and post the certificate on their LinkedIn profile.
Of course this particular scenario is not going to come true, but we likely to get some variation. College and Universities need to accept that they are not providing the best answer to the question "How do I prove to the person in front of me that I have mastered some specific material?"
