A MOOC integrates social networking, facilitation by an expert, and freely accessible online resources. It builds on active engagement of hundreds to thousands of self-organizing students pursuing learning goals. MOOCs have no fees, prerequisites, participation expectations, or formal accreditation beyond Internet access and interest. Courses and resources are accessible and free, though certification may require fees. Students engage and share ideas using digital tools like Blackboard and Twitter. While MOOCs increase access to education, students may lack skills for self-directed learning expected in MOOCs.

How MOOC learning reaches students through TPDVance Stevens
This presentation describes a course in teacher professional development that has been evolving gradually into a MOOC model. MOOCs enable participants to articulate and explore individual learning strategies. This differentiates master learners from those they are employed to teach. When learners must adapt to jobs that haven’t been invented yet, teachers must help learners become master learners; otherwise their ‘training’ only applies to known jobs.

MOOCs, Automation, Artificial Intelligence and Pedagogical AgentsGeorge Veletsianos
Open courses are a sociocultural phenomenon. This phenomenon represents symptoms, responses, and failures facing Higher Education. In this talk, I examined open courses and MOOCs from a variety of angles and discussed the degree to which MOOCs have portrayed education as a product that can be packaged, automated, and delivered. Empirical research on the design and development of pedagogical and intelligent agents that may be used in MOOCs was also presented.

What is MOOC?
The term “MOOC” (Massive Open Online Course) was coined by David Cormier in 2008 (Cormier & Siemens, 2010) to describe a twelve-week online course, Connectivism and Connected Knowledge, designed by George Siemens and Stephen Downes and offered at the University of Manitoba, Canada, in Fall semester 2008.
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are courses provided over the Internet. They are provided free of charge to a large number of people and are accessed by the user logging into a website and signing up. MOOCs differ from traditional university studies, firstly by their open access. As a point of departure, participation merely requires an Internet connection. Secondly, MOOCs are characterized by scalability; the courses are organized so that they can easily be scaled in line with the number of participants.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2. What is a MOOC? A MOOC integrates the connectivity of social networking, the facilitation of an acknowledged expert in a field of study, and a collection of freely accessible online resources. Perhaps most importantly, however, a MOOC builds on the active engagement of several hundred to several thousand “students” who self-organize their participation according to learning goals, prior knowledge and skills, and common interests. Although it may share in some of the conventions of an ordinary course, such as a predefined timeline and weekly topics for consideration, a MOOC generally carries no fees, no prerequisites other than Internet access and interest, no predefined expectations for participation, and no formal accreditation. Word that a MOOC will be offered typically spreads through an online social network. A central web address may be used to consolidate a registration process, outline the suggested course schedule, and provide a nexus for support and communication. Apart from this, however, just about anything goes. http://davecormier.com/edblog/wp-content/uploads/MOOC_Final.pdf [accessed: 07-11-11] Elizabeth Richmond
3. The course and resources are accessible and free, although any certification required may need to be paid for. You don’t necessary complete assignments, but engage and share with other participants; making connections with each other’s ideas and research using digital software and social networking, such as Blackboard Collaborate and Twitter.

Earlier this month, Stanford University opened registration to its artificial intelligence course which is being offered free online to all. Previously, the university had offered only introductory notes to its Computer Science course free online. However, this pioneering move sees the university, which students from all over the world pay thousands to attend, sees offer a complete course free of charge. So far 53,000 people have signed up, including many from Britain. The online course consists of two online lectures a week, digital discussions and a weekly piece of homework that must be completed in order for all online students to pass. The explosion is about to happen”.
