MOOC research weakneses

shared by Patrice Prusko on 24 Sep 13 - No Cached
  • failings in the MOOC format around sustainability, quality, equality, equity, financial viability, learning quality and accreditation.
  • lacks novelty
  • weaknesses around access, content, quality, accreditation, pedagogy, poor engagement with weaker learners, and exclusion of learners without networking skills
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • The burning issues for MOOCs are a viable business model and accreditation of learning.
  • networking, reputational and learning skills that MOOC environments require for successful learning.
  • Online autonomy, group formation and inclusion-exclusion feelings among learners are a vital dynamic in MOOC learning, and are probably insufficiently understood.”
  • potential disruptions in higher education; and technology solutions for accreditation, assessment and authentication.
  • using MOOCs to preserve or increase earnings from overseas learners, and in commercial CPD
  • adaptive learning driven by learner analytics; badging and accreditation technology; and authentication technology that would leverage robust and proven peer assessment methods

MOOC Research engagement completion

  • But focusing on the tiny fraction of students who complete a MOOC is misguided. The more important number is the 60 percent engagement rate. Students may not finish a MOOC with a certificate of accomplishment, but the courses nonetheless meet the educational goals of millions.

    "Seventy-five percent said the main reason they signed up for a MOOC was that it didn't cost them anything, while 29 percent of those who dropped out said they got too busy to continue, and 20 percent said they lost interest."

MOOC course design participation video orientation

shared by Patrice Prusko on 08 Oct 13 - No Cached
  • ORIENT: Find out where stuff is. Then remember where it is. DECLARE: Set up a place to record and share your thoughts. NETWORK: Follow others;  interact with them. CLUSTER: Once you’ve gotten your feet wet, get together with people who share your interests. FOCUS: “Halfway through,” Cormier says, “your mind starts to wander.” So have a way to apply what you’ve been learning.
