Seguramente, a estas alturas, ya conoces qué es un MOOC (si no, mira este enlace), o incluso participas en alguno. Pero es posible que, además, te hayas planteado crear tu propio curso masivo. Si es tu caso, este post es para ti.
Alfredo Corell's insight:

Observatorio MOOC propone una quizás excesivamente simple regla de 7 pasos para crear un MOOC de calidad.

 

Para realmente proponer un MOOC de calidad no tienes que elegir ninguna materia (paso 1) ni buscar un equipo de calidad (paso 2) ni crear un buen programa (paso 3). Realmente, si eres experto en ese campo... estos 3 pasos ya están dados. 

 

No se puede pretender crear MOOCs de calidad como churros.

Latest news, events and thoughts about MOOCs

Latest news, events and thoughts about MOOCs | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

I present here a compilation of news, thoughts, and movements in the MOOCs field.

Alfredo Corell's insight:

- A main concern is the low level of courses completions (below 10%):

http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/01/17/measuring-the-success-of-online-education , one can consider 20% completion a success: http://technorati.com/technology/article/are-massive-open-online-courses-moocs/

 

- In the same line, a Coursera's MOOC had 180.000 students, but less than 26.000 are now running: http://www.hackcollege.com/blog/2013/01/22/duke-university-professors-mooc-has-180000-students.html

 

-On the other hand US universities are thinking to link a first free MOOC with a second official course for credit in the named "MOOC2Grade":

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/23/education/public-universities-to-offer-free-online-classes-for-credit.html?_r=3&

 

-Competition between Universities is open for the MOOC market, New international alliances are growing: http://www.insidehighered.com/news/2013/01/22/foreign-universities-consider-how-best-enter-mooc-market

 

-Thoughts about knowledge transmition from a MOOC pioner professor (Scott E. Page): http://at.blogs.wm.edu/thoughts-from-a-mooc-pioneer/

When is a MOOC not a MOOC? - Professors and universities debating - Enterprises releasing iPad Apps

When is a MOOC not a MOOC? - Professors and universities debating - Enterprises releasing iPad Apps | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

By Vance Stevens:


I have to admit I would not be drawn to a blog post entitled so vacuously as, "what MOOC means to me" (so I thought up something catchy and made the real purpose of this post its subtitle). However, it's early days for working out what MOOC means for anyone. People have different ideas about what MOOC means, period. Obviously, the most relevant meaning is the one that reaches any one of us personally. MOOC means a lot to me, I'm going to try to pin down that meaning here, and maybe this will help you get your own grip on what MOOC might mean to you.

ACE to Assess Potential of MOOCs, Evaluate Courses for Credit-Worthiness

ACE to Assess Potential of MOOCs, Evaluate Courses for Credit-Worthiness | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

American Council on Education (ACE) announced a wide-ranging research and evaluation effort that will examine the academic potential of massive open online courses (MOOCs).

Working with institutional leaders, organizations like Coursera and the University Professional and Continuing Education Association (UPCEA), and supported by generous funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, ACE will leverage its position as the major coordinating body for all the nation's higher education institutions to identify and answer questions about the disruptive potential of this new and innovative approach to higher education.

The Rise of the MOOC: The Future of Higher Education?

Higher education is a sector that has thus far embraced – but arguably has not been fundamentally altered by – the growth of the Internet. This has been rapidly changing over the last few years with the rise of MOOCs, or Massive Open Online Courses; a way of learning that lets students participate on their own terms via the Internet. MOOCs have been embraced in a big way by elite universities and institutions, and are beginning to have a major impact on higher education. But are MOOCs really delivering quality access to education, or are they creating huge issues for the education sector? ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN aims to explore the issue in detail.

 

The MOOC prize is a very positive reason to contribute to the education of hte poorest. More on this topic:

"More than one-third of all college students are taking at least one online course, according to the Babson Survey

Research Group’s most recent Survey of Online Learning. That’s more than 6.7 million students. And those students are

taking courses that have been tested by years of experience and that have been reviewed as part of regular accreditation

reviews of colleges. Some students are entirely online, while others are traditional students, enrolled at physical campuses,

but taking some of their education online."

Estas tecnologías dejan de estar de moda y en consecuencia, por lo general la prensa abandona el tema.).

Dear Editor, Nationally, more students are participating in doctoral education than ever before. In particular, doctoral education has benefited from dramatic increases in enrollments of international students, minorities and women. Yet, at U.S. institutions, 63 percent of Ph.D. students in the field of economics (60 percent in engineering, 45 percent in physical and mathematical sciences), are foreigners.

Les than 4% of students pass the final at MIT online courses:

Por Miguel Zapata Ros

 

Estoy trabajando en la asignatura de Calidad en el Máster de Alcalá. Renovando un material que ya estaba un poco rancio (en él hablaba de cosas como RSDI, FTP, listas de discusión y de otras antiguallas).
La esencia del modelo propuesto se basa en detectar qué rasgos del sistema de formación favorecen un mejor aprendizaje. Planteamiento recursivo que lleva en sí mismo el concepto de calidad. Y a partir de esos rasgos definir en un bucle qué requisitos son necesarios, e intentar plasmarlos en indicadores.
En esa tarea he llegado al rasgo "interactivo" o a plantearme en este contexto y para este fin qué es la interactividad. Y he llegado a la siguiente formulación, que espero sea profusamente debatida y criticada

The year of the MOOCs: courses are Multiplying very quickly and they're generating massive amounts of Resources

The year of the MOOCs: courses are Multiplying very quickly and they're generating massive amounts of Resources | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it
Massive open online courses are the educational happening of the moment. Everyone wants in. No one is quite sure what they’re getting into.

 

IN late September, as workers applied joint compound to new office walls, hoodie-clad colleagues who had just met were working together on deadline. Film editors, code-writing interns and “edX fellows” — grad students and postdocs versed in online education — were translating videotaped lectures into MOOCs, or massive open online courses. As if anyone needed reminding, a row of aqua Post-its gave the dates the courses would “go live.”

 

The MOOCs are also generating a massive amount of MOOC Resources:

http://www.worldofwebcast.com/post/massive-list-of-mooc-resources-lit-and-literati

 

Creative Commons says MOOCs should be kept "Open" in a couple of senses:

The original MOOCs…were “open” in two respects. First, they were open enrollment to students outside the hosting university. That is open as in “open registration.” Second, the materials of the course were licensed using Creative Commons licenses so their materials could be remixed and reused by others. That is open as in “open license.”

Distance learning is increasingly popular and one of the reasons is the growing number of free courses being offered online
