People still have the need for face to face communication. People need people skills and MOOCS do not provide that. Also, it is important to be able to contact your professor for one on one time and in classes of thousands of students that is impossible. MOOC's are more suited if you would like to learn something quickly and you are able to be self disciplined enough to follow through with the course. It would be hard for a premed, med student, nurse, etc. to take MOOC's as they need classroom time to learn and develop their skill.
