Massive Open Online Courses (MOOOCs) and other trends point to an open and digital future for higher education. Early MOOCs saw enormous enrollments, such as a course on artificial intelligence that had over 160,000 students enrolled. Major MOOC platforms now offer hundreds of free online courses from top universities. This proliferation of free online college courses could reshape higher education over the next decade as open educational resources, teaching, accreditation, and research expand.

Using WordPress as a badge platform #openbadgesHE
The Association for Learning Technology has been experimenting with the open source blogging platform WordPress as an Open Badges issuing platform. As part of this presentation we include details of our journey from digital to open badges. As part of this we highlight some of the benefits of using WordPress and the free BadgeOS plugin as well as issues encountered integrating with Mozilla Backpack. As well as the technical aspect we will look at how badges were used in the Open Course for Technology Enhanced Learning (ocTEL). As part of this badges were awarded on a weekly basis for a range of tasks from simply ‘checking-in’ to completing predefined learning activities. Given the range of criteria this presentation explores the general question ‘do open badges count?’. The presentation concludes by looking at current developments which are informing how the Association might use Open Badges in the future. As part of this we will touch upon the potential other benefits of badges including situational awareness for learners and the wider community.

The business impact of MOOCs
MOOCs have evolved from early open online courses focused on connectivism to the current massive open online courses provided by universities on digital platforms. These platforms are experimenting with online education models from other startups and introducing non-formal certificates. While MOOCs have received significant media attention, they do not fit the definition of a hype. When analyzed using the framework of disruptive innovation, MOOCs have the potential to disrupt traditional higher education by initially serving less selective students before expanding to more advanced programs.

It also explains that the Cloud enables new, innovative types of content and is a compelling place for both formal and informal learning, including through massive open online courses (MOOCs). The document argues that while libraries traditionally focused on providing access to in-house resources, they now need to focus on supporting learning across the entire Cloud. It concludes that in the Cloud era, librarians' role is to facilitate the use of information in learning, and that librarians must be evolving or transforming to address these changes.
Academia and the MOOC
The New York Times said that 2012 was “the year of the MOOC”
EDUCAUSE said that they have “the potential to alter the relationship between learner and instructor and between academe and the wider community.”
Can a course where the participants and the course materials are distributed across the web and the courses are "open" and offered at no cost to a very large number of participants who do not receive institutional credit be a worthwhile venture for a college?
Blending the University: Beyond MOOCs
In this presentation at SXSWedu in March 2013, Dr. Gigi Johnson explores the fuzzy world of “blended” courses in higher education. She dissects the tensions and tribulations as universities attempt to blend F2F and web-enriched tools in traditional environments, including challenges of time, space, and data politics in research universities, challenges with cost structures and faculty development, and abundant legal and IP issues. What is a class vs. what it could be with rich alternative technologies for learning? How do old universities rethink “class” instead of “just” repackage learning in a blended environment?

This document discusses perspectives on MOOCs and their usefulness in various contexts. It provides an overview of what MOOCs are and why people take them, such as to learn new skills or for personal enrichment. It discusses different types of learning MOOCs can provide and completion rates. Benefits of MOOCs include accessing experts, building networks, and supplementing gaps in educational provision. MOOCs can be used by creating your own, using existing ones, or wrapping MOOCs with additional support. Researching MOOCs provides opportunities to improve design and understand online learning. MOOCs can also inform classroom learning designs through flipped or blended models.Higher Education: final countdown
“For most of the 20th century, lectures provided an efficient way to transfer knowledge, but in an era with a perfect video-delivery platform — one that serves up billions of YouTube views and millions of TED (technology, entertainment, design) Talks — why would anyone waste precious class time on a lecture?,” write Associate Medical School dean, Charles Prober and business professor, Chip Heath, in The New England Journal of Medicine.
