Do languages "learn"?
Fragment of a discussion from Talk:Language Learning/Curriculi
Obviously one can view it as a "Linguistic research topic", but there is more here. The observations voiced by the South African Institute for Distance Education (SAIDE) in its Unit One: Exploring What It Means To ‘Do’ Mathematics. provides an example of how a new idea introduce itself. SAIDE's observations are not isolated, but every learning community experiences this process - even the United States in the 1960's.
Very interesting. I wonder if OER Africa could be persuaded to use a license compatible with WikiEducator's and Wikipedia's. The easier exchange of knowledge would be beneficial to all and liberate the learning resources on OER Africa's site.
