Content	
•  Arouse	Learner’s	Interest (Cooking	Class,	Tennis	Class,	
Orchid	Plan+ng)
•  Add	values	to	Learners’	Lives (Den+st	Assistance	Skills,	
Nursing	for	Ageing	People,	Learning	Design	for	
Corporate,	Digital	Literacy,	Graphic	Design,	Computer	
Network	System)
•  Essen+al	for	Learners’	Lives	((integrated	with	their	
enrolled	course	i.e.	English,	Thai,	IT	for	Educa+on,	real	
life	situa+on	i.e.	psychology	for	adolescents,	
Contempla+ve	Educa+on)	
28	Assoc. Prof. Thanomporn Laohajaratsang, Ph.D.
Learning	Ac>vi>es	
•  Learners	love	and	enjoy	learning	through	various	kinds	of	
ac+vi+es	on	MOOC	rather	than	just	watch	the	video-based	
materials.
•  Right	design	that	matches	learners’	characteris+cs
–  allow	them	to	create	works	which	allow	them	to	apply	what	
they	have	learned.	
–  Adult	learners)	tend	to	like	learning	with	the	media	that	
displays	instructor’s	face	on	the	video	
–  were	sa+sfied	with	the	discussion	ac+vi+es	about	what	they	
have	learned	whereas	undergraduate	students	prefer	short-
answer	ac+vi+es,	drag	and	drop,	true-false	rather	than	
answering	open-ended	ques+ons.

Assoc. Prof. Thanomporn Laohajaratsang, Ph.D.
Learning	Ac>vi>es	Design	(Con>nued)	
•  Learners	prefer	to	receive	the	reply	message	as	soon	
as	possible.		
•  However,	three	days	are	acceptable	but	most	of	
them	wish	to	get	a	reply	no	later	than	1	day.		
•  They	wish	the	instructors	can	contact	them	back	via	
the	use	of	Facebook	(1/3)	Email	and	Line	around	
(1/4).	
31	Assoc. Prof. Thanomporn Laohajaratsang, Ph.D.
Learning	Media	(Con>nued)	
•  compact,	bite-sized,	easy	to	understand,	and	entertaining
•  Most	 of	 the	 learners	 report	 that	 they	 like	 New	 Media.	 This	
means	that	they	like	to	learn	both	from	the	instructors	in	the	
video	and	also	the	incorporated	video,	graphics,	anima+ons	
e x p l a i n i n g	 t h e	 c o n t e n t	 a t	 t h e	 s a m e	 + m e .	
•  The	length	of	the	video	should	be	around	5	minutes’	long	
(and	not	longer	than	10).	
•  The	content	should	be	well-	designed,	interes+ng	and	fun	to	
learn.	.	If	instructors	are	shown	in	the	video,	he/she	needs	to	
create	friendly	(relaxed	alertness)	environment.	For	instance,	
they	should	smile	and	use	effec+ve	presenta+on	techniques	
to	explain	the	content	clearly.		
32	Assoc. Prof. Thanomporn Laohajaratsang, Ph.D.
Learning	Media	(Con>nued)	
•  Learning	media	must	be	offered	to	learners	in	various	
formats	including	videos,	audios,	e-book,	PowerPoint	
file,	pdf	files,	on-demand	videos	and	downloaded	
materials.		
•  Most	of	the	students	like	instructors	to	offer	live	
sessions	because	they	are	interes+ng,	but	they	do	not	
want	these	too	oJen.	
33	Assoc. Prof. Thanomporn Laohajaratsang, Ph.D.
Learning	Media	
•  During	the	first	4	weeks,	most	students	stated	that	
they	prefer	MOOC	than	coming	to	an	early	class	(83%-	
17%)	because	it	is	more	flexible,	students	can	learn	
whenever	they	wish	(80%-20%).		
•  *However,	the	number	goes	down	aJer	8-week	of	
class	(to	65%-35%).
