A question for my open ed peeps. In a piece I'm thinking about writing about current politics & higher ed, I want to talk about Taylorism (Frederick Taylor) & it's relationship to higher ed. Anybody w/ bus. school bkgrnd should know Taylorism but I'm curious as to whether it means anything to others w/ non-business higher ed backgrounds? @katebowles @Mweller @dkernohan @actualham @mahabali @davecormier @bonstewart

@econproph @katebowles @Mweller @dkernohan @actualham @mahabali @davecormier to me, yes. no business background: education via English lit & poli sci.

Cathy Davidson uses the term in her education critiques, which span a fairly wide audience somewhere in the digital humanities/edu/ed tech intersections...not sure it would be a familiar concept to everyone in those spheres but not totally obscure.

@bonstewart @dkernohan @katebowles @mahabali @actualham @davecormier @Mweller Thanks. I"m trying to figure out how much I might need to explain vs. provide links vs. can assume folks know.

@econproph @dkernohan @mahabali @actualham @davecormier @Mweller @bonstewart Familiar to me, but I think it's always good to explain briefly. I often find I think I'm familiar with something but I'm actually a bit wrong.
