Mr. S.N Ntanzi gave a presentation on MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) on August 3, 2015. MOOCs aim for unlimited online participation via interactive forums and are open access. They were discovered in 2008 by Dave Cormer and developed in response to an open online course by George Siemens and Stephen Downes. There are two types of MOOCs: cMOOCs which focus on connectivity and group work, and xMOOCs which use a behaviorist model and computer programs. MOOCs allow students to access education through lecture videos and music which are important for learners of different styles.
