• A shift in the way we teach our students
• Through MOOCs, our students are:
• Exposed to learners worldwide
• Engaged and this in turn, enrich their learning experience

• Build network with like minded-people
• MOOC fits well withTU’s e-Learning mission –
“by 2016, every student at Taylor's University will learn in a collaborative, self-directed and
personalised manner, anytime and anywhere”.
5. USEFULNESS
• Can be access anytime, anywhere, as long there is connectivity
• Lecturers may use MOOC as Flipped Classroom
• Content can be set up quickly, may use existing content first
• Learning can take place in an informal setting – Social Learning Space
• A chance to connect with people in different area of expertise
• Enforce lifelong learning skills
• A chance for instructor to share knowledge and get paid
6. THE EARLY ADOPTERS
• Initial goal of using MOOC to promoteTU’s presence online and designed to attract high school
leavers to chooseTU to continue their higher education.
• MOOCs were created as ‘mini courses’ to offer a taste of what school leavers may
experience in a university program.
• Hence, in March 2014,TU launched 4 new pilot MOOCs which were:

It is important according to Marshall5 to select “early adopters
and to plan an event which is fun and celebratory to raise
Academics’ interest about the project”5.

19. CHALLENGES
• Being forced to take up MOOC
• No ulterior motivation given
• May lose momentum- teaching overload
• Change mind set
• Not familiar with the platform
• Dependence on eLA
• Limited resources
20. BEST PRACTICES
• Be a consumer before becoming a creator of MOOC
• Use MOOC as a supplement to F2F practices
• Apply MOOC as flipped classroom
• Get to know your MOOC platform
• Engage with your students
• Add ‘Social Learning’ activity
• Form a team.
“The ones who intend to run the MOOC need to be clear on the type of
pedagogy for their MOOC, even if it is just with their design team” -
Simon Cross3, lecturer from the Institute of Educational Technology,
The Open University,
21. Crucial Factors to Sustain Momentum
• Support fromVC
• Support from DVC
• Support from Deans
• Support from e-Content DevelopmentTeam
• Have a System in Keeping Everyone Informed
• Keeping Morale Up - Support
It’s always better when it comes from colleagues than administrators, I have no
interest in forcing faculty members who are not interested in online education to
teach an online course” Paul Berman,Vice Provost for Online Education GWU
22. WAY FORWARD
As MOOC allows courses to be offered – unlimited to all, future
commercialization of Taylor’s MOOCs are being planned, and these MOOCs
may be in the form of private paid classes or credit bearing MOOC.
MQA Compulsory Subjects

Introduce the presentation with a intro of the first MOOC launch in 2014.
The pilot MOOCs ran by the early adopters were initially set up with the goal of using MOOC to promote TU’s presence online and designed to attract high school leavers to choose TU to continue their higher education. As such the MOOCs were created as ‘mini courses’ to offer a taste of what school leavers may experience in a university program.
Hence, in March 2014, TU launched 4 new pilot MOOCs which were:
Journey in into the Cell – School of Biosciences
A Business Journey with Caffeine Café – Taylor’s Business School
Wonderful Styles of Food and Beverage around the World – School of Hospitality, Tourism and Culinary Arts
Mobile Game Development with Game Salad – School of Computing and IT
The pilot MOOCs by the early adopters were launched without much understanding about MOOC and what it takes to run a MOOC successfully. With the MOOC itself being a relatively new phenomenon at that time for Malaysian Universities, we learned from the mistakes we’ve made in the pilot MOOCs. One thing for sure, the early adopters agreed that passion and the interest in the subject matter and the students kept them going in facilitating their MOOCs.
Talk a bit on the mad about MOOC festival and its purpose. – sharing of the experience of the early mooc adopters and to enroll more lecturers to want to do MOOC. want to show we have support from stakeholders. We also use that time too enroll future MOOC champions and MOOC courses
We send this out after the mad about mooc, for those who may have missed the mad about mooc festival
The after Mad About MOOC event emails.
After the workshop we managed to generate possible MOOC leads. A spreadsheet in Google+ tracked the MOOC development progress. To date, we’ve developed over 30 MOOCs in TU’s platform in OpenLearning.

According to Paul Berman4, the Vice Provost for online education and Academic Innovation in George Washington on empowering faculty to run a MOOC “It’s always better when it comes from colleagues than administrators,” he said. “I have no interest in forcing faculty members who are not interested in online education to teach an online course.”
