Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) was one of the initiatives of the Malaysia Ministry of Education to ensure the standard of our national education system was at par with the global education trends. This initiative was documented in Malaysian Education Blueprint 2015 -2025 (Higher Education, Shift No.9: Globalised Online Learning). Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) was among the public universities in Malaysia that were seriously involved in MOOC development. Starting with one MOOC in 2014, four MOOCs in 2015, 16 MOOCs in 2016, UiTM embarked into developing 450 new MOOCs in 2017. To ensure UiT

Abstract:
Massive open online courses (MOOCs) are a technical trend in the field of education. As the number of available MOOCs continues to grow dramatically, the difficulty for learners to find courses that satisfy their personalized learning goals has also increased. Unstructured texts, such as course descriptions and course skills, contain rich course information and are useful for MOOC platforms in constructing personalized services. This paper proposes a novel search ranking method for MOOCs that integrates unstructured course information. We propose a latent Dirichlet allocation-based model to cl

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are a disruptive trend in education. Several initiatives have emerged during the last months to give support to MOOCs, and many educators have started offering courses as MOOCs in different areas and disciplines. However, designing a MOOC is not an easy task. Educators need to face not only pedagogical issues, but also other issues of logistical, technological and financial nature, as well as how these issues relate and constrain each other. Currently, little guidance is available for educators to address the design of MOOCs from scratch keeping a balance be

Abstract:
AbstractIn conjunction with the rapid expansion of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), academic interest has grown in the analysis of MOOC student study sessions. Education researchers have increasingly regarded process mining as a promising tool with which to answer simple questions, including the order in which resources are completed. However, its application to more complex questions about learning dynamics remains a challenge. For example, do MOOC students genuinely study from a resource or merely skim content to understand what will come next? One common practice is to use the resources directly as activities, resulting in spaghetti process models that subsequently undergo filtering. However, this leads to over-simplified and difficult-to-interpret conclusions. Consequently, an event abstraction becomes necessary, whereby low-level events are combined with high-level activities. A wide range of event abstraction techniques has been presented in process mining literature, primarily in relation to data-driven bottom-up strategies, where patterns are discovered from the data and later mapped to education concepts. Accordingly, this paper proposes a domain-driven top-down framework that allows educators who are less familiar with data and process analytics to more easily search for a set of predefined high-level concepts from their own MOOC data. The framework outlined herein has been successfully tested in a Coursera MOOC, with the objective of understanding the in-session behavioral dynamics of learners who successfully complete their respective courses.

AbstractDuring the coronavirus pandemic, scholars study how learners pursue lifelong learning in open and distance education since few studies investigate this issue. This study aims to discover a learning model that would increase the students’ online learning engagement and course completion in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). Adopting the Self-Regulation Theory (SRT) on andragogy, this study is administered to 290 Massive MOOC adult learners in the Davao region. The author aimed to identify the respondents’ level of self-regulation in online learning, determine their learning outputs in a MOOC, examine the relationship between their self-regulation and learning outputs, and ascertain the significant predictors of their learning outputs. This study applied a quantitative-correlational design in collecting, interpreting, and discussing data from surveys using an adapted questionnaire. The author treated the data through a multiple regression correlation test. The results reveal that the respondents’ level of self-regulation in MOOC was very high, and they attained an excellent level of learning outputs. Furthermore, the findings show a strong relationship between their self-regulation and learning outputs in MOOCs. Meta-cognition, time management, environmental structuring, help-seeking, and persistence were significant predictors of learning outputs as reflected in the learning model that emerged. Findings also highlighted that self-regulation could significantly predict the learning outputs of online learners in exploring the MOOCs for their personal and professional development.

Abstract:
AbstractAt least two motivations make relevant research on regional MOOC providers: (1) they are Learning at scale environments where a large amount of data is produced, the high number of learners can show different approaches to learning, the whole population can be analysed, teaching and instructional design methods can be compared; (2) regional platforms reach the interests and needs of population groups that have only sometimes registered in international platforms.Therefore, we conducted a study at a large scale on EduOpen, an Italian MOOCs platform to which 28 institutions joined. The research aims to describe the current situation on EduOpen MOOCs, identify a latent model for the design and delivery of courses, and detect points of interest to enhance the platform’s procedure. We used courses as statistical units and identified three groups of variables: basic features, design features, and delivery features. We used multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) with descriptive statistics to answer the research questions. MCA is a method for data reduction for qualitative variables in which the categories assumed by the variables play a central role in defining a smaller number of dimensions.We found two dimensions that define the structure that underlies the design process – course density and content attainability, and the delivery process – diffusion and participation. Some focal points that EduOpen members can consider improving strategies in the design of the courses are related to the organization of activities and content, the scheduling of activities and whole courses, the levels of interaction in the courses, and the definition of qualified professional figures for design and tutoring.

Abstract:
Online education is currently led with MOOC education platform in a scalable way to satisfy the need of the specialized student community. With the adoption of MOOC, students not only study for course credits, but also to learn the newest technologies in the market. Several MOOC providers offer thousands of online courses using knowledge experts in the fields. Thus, MOOC fills the knowledge gap between the academics and industry by offering the on-demand courses, which may not be available in the course curriculum. These MOOC courses are offered either free or payment. At the successful completion of the course, most MOOC platforms give the certification to the participants. MOOC is already doing revolution in higher education and online education. This chapter deals with MOOC model and its evolution and need. The different types and categories of MOOCs are listed. The different MOOC providers and their course criteria are also discussed. This chapter identifies and narrates the implementation issues in the MOOC model. The future research challenges are also summarized.

MOOCs are found to be next disruption for online education. It provides many avenues to students to who could not be access to world class education. xMOOCs have been experiencing by students since 2012 and courses keep adding every day in many MOOC platforms. However, it was found that not all the courses in MOOC platforms provide student satisfactions and quality. In other words, effectiveness of the courses in MOOCs varies significantly. Many MOOCs fail to meet the user goals. This concerns the MOOC consumers that there is no quality standard followed by the MOOC producers. In this chapter, authors evaluate 20 courses in MOOC platforms by actively participating and experiencing the behaviors. Evaluation is processed using 8 dimensional eLearning framework to explore the quality and readiness on the technology for future. Results expressed that MOOCs need thorough attention in designing so that it meets user goals and be effective to continue keeping the users interest.

A MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) is an online course with no limit to its number of participants and open access provided you have internet access. While a MOOC might accommodate enrollment in the thousands, some of these courses enroll far fewer--the "massive" part of the name speaks more to the potential to include vast numbers of students than to the actual size of the class. In the last two years millions of users regis

"MOOCs have brought many possibilities for both learners and teachers. For learners, they can study from distances and search for courses that fit their professions. For teachers, a MOOC can fully demonstrate his/her research basis, personal charisma and versatile abilities. MOOCs also bring teachers new challenges that may be overlooked in traditional education processes, especially when they are creating highly attractive, high-quality courses.

Abstract:
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have gained momentum in the past decade. MOOCs are becoming popular day by day across the world. One visible difference between traditional teaching-learning and MOOC is in terms of the central position of videos. Video-based content delivery has become the primary medium of instruction in most the MOOCs (Yousef, 2015), supported by e-text, activities, quizzes, and discussion forums. In India, the MOOCs being offered on the SWAYAM platform are mostly video-based. As per SWAYAM guidelines (2016 &amp; 2017), for a four-credit MOOC in SWAYAM, a minimum of 20 ho

Even though MOOCs are usually developed and delivered as independent online courses, experiments to wrap formal university courses around existing MOOCs are reported by teachers and researchers in different articles (Bruff et al., 2013).

Abstract:
Since late 2012, there has been conversation about the overlap between the LMS and MOOC platform markets. While most of the edtech community continues to focus on the major MOOC platforms (e.g.: Coursera and EdX), each of the major LMS makers now has a solution for teaching MOOCs as well. For example, Blackboard's Course Sites has offered "open enrollment" courses since April 2012, the very month Coursera was founded, although the organization's official press didn't mention the acronym "MOOC" until early/mid 2013. Moodle held a MOOC on their LMS MOOC platform called Learn Moodle on September
