Hokanson, Brad; McCluske, Marit
Educational Technology, v54 n5 p22-29 Sep-Oct 2014

In their popular description, in the pedagogical and technological approach, in course operation, and in impact, the scale of the course is always foremost in mind. Beyond changes in scale, there are challenges and opportunities to adapt the new techniques in a variety of venues. This article examines the development and operation of a massive course on creativity and creative problem solving.
