- 12. Demographics of MOOC learners • Machine Learning course • 50% were professionals who currently held jobs in the tech industry – 41% were professionals currently working in the software industry – 9 percent said they were professionals working in non-software areas of the computing and information technology industries.
- 13. Demographics of MOOC learners • Many were already enrolled in some kind of traditional postsecondary education – ~ 20 percent were graduate students – 11.6 percent were undergraduates – 3.5 percent unemployed – 2.5 percent employed somewhere other than the tech industry – 1.0 percent enrolled in a K-12 school
- 14. Why they chose to take the course • 39 percent were “just curious about the topic” • 30.5 percent wanted to “sharpen the skills” they use in their current job • 18 percent, said they wanted to “position themselves for a better job.”

Hybrid Learning Student still participate f2f and come to Students move around countries, institutions campus but for more interactive learning and MOOCs accumulating credits then sitting experiences such as: challenge tests to determine what they still • project work need to do in order to gain qualification • more f2f interaction with academics and other learning support staff such as Librarians, careers counsellors, learning advisorys
Editor's Notes
- Clayton Christenson’s book“The book’s core message is that fundamental change is coming to higher education. We’re seeing the confluence of unsustainable cost increases in the traditional model and a disruptive technology, online learning, that makes it possible to serve many more students at high quality and affordable cost. The result will be greater innovation than we’ve seen in higher education in more than a century.”
- Peer 2 Peer U and the Mozilla Foundation have been collaborating on the development of an ‘open badges’ architecture, a system that will allow any open education program to offer badges recognizing learning accomplishments. These badges will be displayable on personal Web pages and will link back to the sites that issued them and to the materials the learners developed in earning the badge. Winners of the recent Digital Media and Learning competition are currently developing a wide range of applications that will use the badges infrastructure.Many programs are experimenting with awarding non-credit certificates, a model used by many of the MOOCs.As learning takes place online, data that captures learner activity will increasingly be used as a proxy for learning.

- The question was ‘How often do you, and how often would you like to, engage in the following learning activities that use technologies as part of your course?’The responses represent students who checked ‘a few times a week’ or ‘daily or more often’Current use was lower than preferred use for every item except use of search engines, which is fully within students’ control. (I haven’t put the data through SPSS so am unsure whether all differences are significant.Biggest gaps between current and preferred use related to:listening to/watching podcasts/vodcasts made by lecturers RSS feeds to information relevant to your studiesusing webconferencing etc to join in remotely to lectures or tutorialsuse of discipline-specific softwareOne of the other questions asked ‘Use a tablet computer (egiPad) to access or contribute study-related information on the internet’ Only 5% of students currently do this, but 42% would like to!
- The responses represent students who checked ‘a few times a week’ or ‘daily or more often’Email, UTSOnline and face-to-face were the most popular current and preferred means of communicating with teaching staff.Methods of communicating with other students are more diverse. Email and F2F are still popular, but SMS comes in third followed by mobile phone calls and social networking sites like Facebook.
