中文简介:
大规模在线开放课程(MOOC)最近已成为高等教育中备受讨论的发展趋势。这场辩论的大部分内容集中在迄今为止出现的MOOC类型、学习者完成率以及如何维持这些类型之间的哲学和操作上的相似性和差异。相比之下,关于此类课程在社会、经济和环境效益方面是否符合现有高等教育政策和实践的讨论要少得多。本文首先将当前的MOOC与十年前推出的一门大规模ICT增强型、主要是在线开放大学英国课程进行了比较,并将其与之进行了对比,以及它们是如何服务于或可能服务于更广泛的社会、经济或环境目标的。论文的结论是,虽然MOOC正在迫使高等教育研究重新概念化,但从以前和现有的大量开放大学在线课程中也可以学到很多东西。
课程简介: Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) have recently become a much discussed development within higher education. Much of this debate focuses on the philosophical and operational similarities and differences between the types of MOOCs that have emerged to date, the learner completion rates and how they can be sustained. In contrast there has been much less discussion about how such courses do, or do not, fit in with existing higher education policy and practice in terms of the social, economic and environmental benefits. This paper begins to address this issue by comparing and contrasting current MOOCs with one large population ICT-enhanced, mostly online Open University UK course presented a decade earlier and how they have both served, or might serve, broader social, economic or environmental objectives. The paper concludes that while MOOCs are forcing a re-conceptualisation of higher education study, much can also be learned from previous and existing large population mainly online courses from open universities.
