Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) for Professional Development. MOOC Initia...Carmen Holotescu
This document discusses integrating Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) into university courses for professional development. It provides an overview of MOOC platforms and initiatives in Romania. Specifically, it describes several Romanian MOOC projects including UniCampus, UniBuc Virtual, and courses developed by various universities. It also outlines scenarios for blending MOOCs into courses, such as using MOOCs to enlarge course topics or support student projects. Benefits include exposing students to high-quality online materials and global learning communities, while challenges involve complex course design and evaluating distributed student activities.
This project aims to provide professional development courses on digital teaching methods like synchronous hybrid, blended, and online learning. Led by EADTU and involving several European universities, the project will design and implement three cycles of courses on these topics over two years. The courses will help educators adapt to digital education needs arising from the pandemic and will empower students for digital learning. The project seeks to advance quality and inclusion in digital education across Europe.
The document discusses designing a framework for making use of MOOCs. It begins by defining MOOCs and describing the University of Cape Town's (UCT) MOOCs project goals, which included developing 12 MOOCs to showcase teaching and research. The project encountered experiences like high geographic reach and participation rates. UCT also analyzed MOOC materials licensing and developed a framework for reuse consisting of whole/partial course reuse and materials reuse models. The framework aims to support new pedagogical strategies and opportunities through MOOC creation and adaptation.
The document summarizes the impact of MOOCs created by TU Delft. It discusses how the MOOCs have:
1) Educated over 900,000 students worldwide, improving access to education.
2) Increased TU Delft's international reputation and rankings by attracting more international students.
3) Improved campus education by incorporating MOOC materials and seeing improved student performance.
4) Fostered new connections between education and research through extensive research on MOOC learner data.
