    MASSIVE OPEN

    ONLINE COURSES
    Beginning with the first correspondence courses in the 1890s
    from Columbia University, distance learning has been an
    important means of making higher education available to the
    masses. As technology has evolved, so has distance learning;
    and in just the last 5 years a new form of education has
    arisen, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).

    This new set-up of educational


    collaboration has made possible for
    teachers and students to meet and
    learn new things together without
    being physically present. Hence, the
    concept of Massive Open Online
    Courses (MOOCs) are born.

    As technology has evolved, so has


    distance learning. It began with
    mailing books and syllabi to
    students, then radio lectures, then
    tv courses, and now online courses.
    Massive Open Online Course, a term
    used to describe web technologies
    that have enabled educators to
    create virtual classrooms of
    thousands of students.

    NETWORK IN 2016 REPORTED THAT MOOCS HAS
    INFLUENCE TEACHING AND LEARNING.
    Ontario’s Distance Education and Training Network
    in 2016 reported that MOOCs have influenced
    teaching and learning. According to them, there are
    five ways in which MOOCs are currently having an
    impact on teaching and learning:
    ◼ Encouraging and enabling unbundling – the
    separation of design, development, deployment,
    delivery, and support for learning.
    ◼ Changing the nature of credit granting and
    credentials.
    ◼ Supporting and accelerating the development of
    blended learning.
    ◼ Supporting the development of learning
    portfolios.
    ◼ Demonstrating the power of learning
    communities and peer tutoring

    OF EXISTING
    online learning approaches, in
    terms of open access to courses
    and scalability. The massification of
    courses has generated significant
    interest from governments,
    institutions, and commercial
    organizations.
