What's Next For MOOCs
The Learning & Training Conference 2020, Contact North, Online, via BeaconLive, Lecture, Dec 08, 2020.
This talk looks at the recent resurgence of MOOCs and describes this growth (despite claims that they are 'dead'), shows how they are providing access to micro-credentials and skills-based learning, and explains how they are and will be improving in terms of student engagement and completion, offering as a proposal the development of "micro-MOOCs" to provide greater access and flexibility for MOOC-based learning.
