PRESENTATION
WHAT IS A MOOC?
 A massive online course (mooc) is a free web-based
distance learning program that is designed for the
participation of large numbers of geographically
dispersed students(whatis.techtarget.com).
 It is a model for learning content online to any person
who wants to take a course, with no limit on
attendance(educase.edu).
 The word MOOC was coined in 2008 by Dave
Cormier, from the University of Prince Edward
Island for a course offered by the University of
Manitoba, “Connectivism and Connective
Knowledge.”
 There were 25tuition-paying student from the
university and 2300 non-paying students from the
general public who took the course online. The
RSS feeds for material and participation was
facilitated through a variety if venues including
Moodle (a learning management system),blog
posts, Second life and real-time online meetings.
HISTORY CONTINUED...
 IN 2011, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
OpenCourseWare (OCW) became the first large
collections of MOOC resources made available by a
University. In 2012, MIT and Harvard university
spearheaded the edX initiative for the promotion of
MOOCs.
 The acronym MOC is pronounced with a ling oo sound,
to rhyme with kook rather than book. The Oxford online
dictionary added the term (as “Mooc”) in August 2013.
ADVANTAGES OF MOOCs
 They provide education that may enable certification,
employment and further studies.
 It is patterned on a college or university course or may
be less structured.
 They inform and shape what we do within and without
institutions.
 Provide no limits to attendance.
 It is for the whole society.
DISADVANTAGES OF MOOCs
 They do not always offer academic credits
 May not handle the pressure of self learning
Types of MOOCs
 Transfer MOOCs
 Made MOOCs
 Synchronous MOOCs
 Asynchronous MOOCs
 Adaptive MOOCs
 Group MOOCs
 Connectivist MOOCs
 Mini MOOCs
MY CHOSEN MOOCS
 I will be doing a MOOC about microbiology and forensic
science.
 Forensic microbiology is about the tracking of viral
transmission and bacteriorism. It is the study of micro-
organisms and how they can be used to help in the
society.
