2008 MOOC (Massive Open Online Course)
What are the advantages to massiveness?
16

17. MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) is a course
where the participants are distributed and
course materials also are dispersed across the
web (en.wikipedia).
Massive (> 1000 students)
Open (enrollment, content)
Online (social networks)
Course (expert facilitators)
17

18. MOOCs are large-scale online courses where an expert or
group of experts from a particular field both
1. create the large draw to the course,
2. facilitate a multi-week series of interactive lectures
and discussion forms on critical issues from that field.
Participants are expected to self-organize, to share and
discuss the course material, and to create and publish
new artifacts that represent their learning.
Additionally, MOOC participation is recorded and
published openly so that those who come upon it later
may follow peripherally.

2011 Stanford AI MOOC
MOOCs are great opportunities to connect with colleagues from
around the world and develop a broad understanding of topics
from diverse perspectives.

30. 1. It reflects the logical next stage of education and
openness: as the course authors state in their intro video,
“we want to teach the world”.
2. Education is ripe for change and transformation and
alternative models, that take advantage of global
connectedness, are important to explore.
3. When traditional universities such as University of Illinois
(eduMOOC) and now Stanford start opening up courses, it’s
reasonable to expect that we’ll be seeing more of these in
the next several years.
4. Finally, learning in a global cohort is an outstanding
experience – networking on steroids!

the stated goal of democratizing education.
It is the outgrowth of free computer science classes offered
in 2011 through Stanford University.
As of June 2012, Udacity has eleven active courses.
Thrun has stated he hopes half a million students will enroll,
after 90,000 students had enrolled in the initial two classes
as of March 2012.
Udacity, announced at the 2012 Digital Life Design
conference, is funded by venture capital firm, Charles River
Ventures, and $200,000 of Thrun's personal money.

EdX is a joint partnership between The Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT) and Harvard University to offer online learning
to millions of people around the world.
39

40. Harvard and MIT have ploughed $60m into launching the
collaboration.
A range of courses will be made available which will
include:
• video lessons,
• embedded quizzes and
• online labs.
• There will also be opportunities to engage with
classmates and the course instructor.
More than a million students will be taking part in the
experiment – which certainly looks set to fill edX’s
ambitions and “revolutionise” the world of education.

42. Anant Agarwal, president of edX, called the initiative a
“revolution”.
“There is a revolution dawning in Boston and beyond.
This revolution has to do with the pen and the mouse.
It’s unbelievable. We will have students around the
world all collaborating and working together.”
Agarwal, who dubbed the partnership the “next big
thing”, says edX will be available to anyone with an
Internet connection and is currently absolutely free.
“Our goal is to educate 1bn people around the world,”
he added. “We’re giving education on a mass scale and
we’re really excited.”
42

43. “The campus environment offers opportunities and
experiences that cannot be replicated online… EdX is
designed to improve, not replace, the campus
experience.” Susan Hockfield (MIT President)
Daphne Koller, co-founder of edX project, says the
development of online courses will raise difficult
questions:
“This is causing universities to rethink their value to
students,”
“The universities in the middle will really have to
think about their proposition.”

44. Private university institute for IT Systems Engineering located in Potsdam,

HPI have around 450 bachelor and master students and about 100 PhD

• With tele-teaching, internet and social network
technologies, HPI want to widely open the doors of HPI to
anyone in the world who is interested in IT systems
engineering, computer science and informatics, to provide
them opportunities to learn and understand the techniques
behind the digital world and what’s coming up there, like
future enterprise computing, emerging database storage

Agarwal, president of edX says without a trace of
irony. “We’re looking to change the world.”
“This is the future, and we must be part of it”.
“I have a feeling that (these kind of courses) will be
a kind of tsunami in the academic world”, Martin
Vetterli, dean of EPFL’s School of Computer and
Communications Sciences.
“It's moving education from a privilege to a right”.
“It's not a question of whether - but how and how
quickly”, Daphne Koller, co-founder of Coursera.
47

48. Six of the top 10 Fortune 500 executives do not have
an Ivy League degree, and 19 of the top 100 worked
their way up to success without a college degree.
Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Larry Ellison,
Mark Zuckerberg, just to mention a few, all dropped
out from the traditional educational institutions that
stifled their creativity and influence.
Today, you advance in the world based on your
performance, not a piece of paper declaring your
expertise in "knowing a little about a lot of things."
Employers are hiring for specific, narrow skills that
aren’t fully learned in college and, when they field
monotonously similar resumes, they’re thinking "What
else have you done other than go to college?”
