This document discusses the implementation of a MOOC for learning electronics using a remote laboratory called VISIR. The MOOC was the world's first remote lab-based MOOC. It consisted of 8 modules over 10 hours each that introduced circuit simulation tools and then had students do real experiments using VISIR. Over its first two editions, the MOOC had a diverse set of students from different backgrounds and countries. The experiments using VISIR allowed up to 384 simultaneous students to experiment remotely. Future work aims to expand the types of circuits and experiments available through the MOOC and VISIR platform.

OERs and MOOCs – the Romanian experience Diana Andone
OERs and MOOCs – the Romanian experience paper, authors Radu Vasiu, Diana Andone, presented at International Conference on Web & Open Access to Learning, 24-27 November 2014, Dubai, UEA.
Using Open Educational Resources (OER) provides opportunities for collaboration both in the classroom and beyond. Started in 2008 and gathering momentum over the past two years, now an online phenomenon, MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) reunite different perspectives over a globalized online learning. The paper analyses the use of OER and MOOCs in different study cases in Romanian universities. Several OER initiatives resulted from the over 1000 academia involved in the DidaTec lifelong learning and training for higher education teachers in the technical sciences and engineering field as a training course for university professors in 12 universities, within the aim of improving the use of ICT in higher education. Four universities from Romania started a Romanian MOOC environment, the UniCampus, which provides free access to valuable education in Romanian language, presented by well-known professors. The evaluation and quality assurance challenges of the Unicampus are mainly due to the restrictive educational setting in Romania. Two study cases on blending MOOCs in traditional higher education courses at undergraduate and Master level are also analysed from the impact on students’ motivation. Integrating MOOCs in blended learning empower students with new abilities and requires a new and open teacher model.

Who is working on this project, and who are they working with?
The obvious: identifying team members.
The ambigous: establishing clear connections among people who’ll be collaborating with each other, integrating their schedules and vacations, and noting how their role in the organization will affect their role on the project team. Outlining these kinds of details is worth the elbow grease, and can help you measure time frames in terms of actual labor hours rather than dubious calendar days.
The general objective of the project is to improve teaching and learning of science and technology using robotics as integrator
1. Apply practical math and scientific concepts while learning to design, build, test and document KAREL (a low cost, utonomous
robotic platform for enhancing learning of sciences and technology in secondary school).
2. Create an interdisciplinary curriculum to use with KAREL robotic platform.
3. Improve confidence and fluency in English and learn scientific and technical vocabulary in partners’ languages.
Principal results and outcomes of the project.
Task Distribution
1. Robotic platform design, manufacture, test and document:
a) Mechanical system – Turkey
b) Electronic system – Poland (input / output devices), Romania (controller, motor drivers, power supply, communication)
d) Software – Greece (codes for lessons), Romania (codes for input / output devices)
The responsible partners will manufacture one final prototype for each partner. During the project all partners will learn to
manufacture their parts and will produce their own fleet of robots.
2. Curriculum for robotic platform design and document:
a) Physics – Greece, Romania
b) Biology – Greece
c) Mechanics – Turkey, Poland
d) Electronics - Poland, Romania
e) Programming – Greece, Romania
e) Robotics – Poland, Romania
Each lesson will be peer reviewed by other partners.
Each partner will translate the final curriculum in his language.
3. The robotic terms dictionary in English, Greek, Polish, Turkish and Romanian will be the result of our common effort.
Strategy
This project involves both pupils and teachers. The pupils will participate in all stages of the project. They will research, design, build,
test, and program the robotic platform. Also they will contribute to test the curriculum. Teachers will guide pupils and will create the
curriculum. We will create a robotic terms dictionary in partners languages.
