5. A model to use
• Grainne Conole
• Design phase
• Twelve dimensions
• Each dimension low, medium, high
• Quality and pedagogy as starting point
• http://mooc.efquel.org/a-new-classification-for-5
6. Dimensions
• Open
• Massive
• Use of multimedia
• Degree of communication
• Degree of collaboration
• Learning pathway
6
• Quality Assurance
• Amount of reflection
• Certification
• Formal learning
• Autonomy
• Diversity
7. Possible consequences
• Open: cohort or not? All content at once or
publish each week separately?
• Learning pathway: consider different
levels of expertise and knowledge?
• Formal & Certification: conditions (e.g.
proctored exam)? Can that be organized?
• Overall: evaluation? Learning analytics for
improvements?

• Independent learning
• Media-supported interaction
• Recognition options
• Quality focus (production & presentation)
• Spectrum of diversity (access)

11. Steps
• Use the model of Conole to determine the
demands on design
• Use the Quality model of OpenUpEd to
specify the demands on quality
• Analyze what adaptations are needed
– Design
– Develop
– Organisation

the degree of openness,
the scale of participation (massification),
the amount of use of multimedia,
the amount of communication,
the extent to which collaboration is included,
the type of learner pathway (from learner centred to teacher-centred and highly structured),
the level of quality assurance,
the extent to which reflection is encouraged,
the level of assessment,
how informal or formal it is,
autonomy: learners employ their own goals and objectives, judgments and assessment of success in the process of interaction with others.
Diversity: applies to a broad range of criteria, including location and time zone, technology of choice, pedagogy, learning style, and more
