Defining a MOOC
• Massive: Extremely large numbers• Open: Open entry to all participants
regardless of ability or location• Online: Use network technologies for
communication and information sharing• Course: There are defined start and end
dates and tasks

The purpose of MOOCs:• Idealistically (p6): The development of MOOCs is
rooted within the ideals of openness in education, that knowledge should be shared freely, and the desire to learn should be met without demographic, economic, and geographical constraints.
• Reality (p4): The rapid expansion of MOOCs has sparked commercial interest from venture capitalists and major corporations who want to enter the HE market using a MOOC approach.

Defining cMOOC and xMOOC
Different ideologies have seen MOOCs eveolve in two pedagogical directions: • Connectivist MOOCs (cMOOC) which are
based on a connectivism theory of learning with networks developed informally; and
• Content-based MOOCs (xMOOCs), which follow a more behaviourist approach and have been launched by “brand” institutions (Harvard, MIT …. …).

Brain-Storm Activity 1Which purpose / definition of MOOC best fits the ITP sector?1. Use a post-it-note to describe in 1
sentence– Why one is the best fit, – why the other it not the best fit?
2. Use white-board to display “post-it-note”
