5. HISTORY OF MOOCS
Before the MOOCs were developed there was a
broadcast radio as an e-learning but it failed due
to lack of participation. Prior MOOCs there was an
OER (Open Educational Resources). The first
MOOCs emerged from the open educational
resources (OER) movement. The term MOOC was
coined in 2008 by Dave Cormier and Senior
Research Fellow Bryan Alexander of the National
Institute for Technology.
Its stated objective is to enable people to gain
basic education and workplace skills

X-MOOC
X-MOOC is based on the
scalability (for learning).
Mostly X-MOOC are typically
offered by the universities in
partnership with an online profit
organisation.
Universities are use this type of
MOOC to deliver the content.
Student need to pay for X-MOOC
as the confirmation of that they are
learning with the expectation of
results
Students must post the slides and
blogs to confirm their participant.
