Power point persnttion of moocs

Mooc is a current educational system that help people and
students to engage with each other. Moreover, It is a learner
centered approach website because anyone who joins it, become

2. My interpretation of Mooc
It further creates an environment where people
become motivators, critical thinkers, and educators just
to mention but a few ; and these people are able to
exercise their skills publically by interacting with one
another. This means that Moocs are there for teaching
and learning purposes.
3. The history of Moocs

connctivism.

Siemens.

Canada.
