Sanna
Simon
Sunne
Pierre
Paul

6. Show me the money
• What are the sustainable business models for
MOOCs?
• What’s the MOOCs ROI?
– €100k for 300 students applying for certificate
(example) = €330 per student. Maybe better to fly
them to a seminar?

7. Poll 2: is there a sustainable
business model for MOOCs?
1. Fremium
2. Branding & marketing
3. Philanthropy
4. Sandbox for educational innovation
5. Sponsorship - promotion of political / social /
commercial agenda
6. Nope.

8. Show me the learning
• Do MOOCs deliver? Do we have evidence of
learning?
• What works (and what doesn’t)?
• Do we need a new pedagogy (or heutagogy?)
for MOOCs?

9. Poll 3: is there a pedagogical
model for MOOCs?
1. A course is a course. Video it & put online.
2. Open Universities have been doing online learning
for years, learn from them.
3. Massive + Open + Online = new possibilities (and
challenges)
4. There is a pedagogy (cMOOCs), but most MOOCs
ignore it.
5. Not yet, but we’re getting there
6. No, vanity + entertainment ≠ pedagogy

10. Quality?
How do you measure the quality of MOOCs?
•Completion rates?
•Satisfaction?
•Analytics?
•Derivative effects?
•Design audit?

11. Poll 4: Good MOOC, Bad
MOOC - how do you measure
quality?
1. Completion rate
2. Satisfaction
3. Analytics
4. Design audit
5. Observable effects
6. None of these. We need new methods.

12. Not what we imagined?
MOOCs have been around for seven years…
•What have we learnt?
•Share your most glorious mistakes..

13. Where are we going?
• Are MOOCs here to stay, or will they fade into
the general scene of online & blended
learning?
• What’s your timeline for the future?

14. Poll 5: Are MOOCs here to
stay?
1. Na, in 5 years they will be buried on lost
islands in Second Life.
2. Sorta. They will blend into other forms of
online / blended learning.
3. Yes, as part of a healthy eco-system of pure,
blended and hybrid educational forms
4. MOOCs will rule, all others beware.
