Margot Tuchler | April 4, 2013

Coursera students see their professors in the online course videos, but they do not see the teams of people working behind the scenes to make the videos possible.

The advent of massive open online courses in the higher education community—specifically Coursera, which Duke partnered with last summer—has demanded expertise from a variety of sectors across the Duke Libraries system, which is responsible for more than just books and databases. In fact, the relationship between professors and the online Coursera platform has largely been bridged by the Center for Instructional Technology, a division...

Over the past year, I have identified several thousands items relating to Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).

I estimate that I've blogged less than 5% in my _Alt-Ed_ blog 


I am greatly interested in learning of your TOPIC and FORMAT interests and preference with regard to future posting of items and have prepared a survey to solicit your priorities.

The survey requests your degree of interest in specific topics and formats (No Interest; Minor Interest; General Interest; Great Interest)

Open Resources Librarian ?
April 1, 2013 | Gerard McKiernan
*** Spoiler Alert > Possible Duplicate Posting ***

Colleagues/

I am interested in any / all initiatives by academic and research libraries that have a Open Resources Librarian (ORL).

While growing number of libraries have a Scholarly Communications Librarian and a Digital Repository Librarian, it appears that from a Google search, none have an"Open Resources Librarian" [?]

As I envision the position, the Open Resources Librarian would a broader mission that would identify, organize, and promote a variety of general and specific resources as a corpus:

* Institutional and subject repositories.
* Open Access eTheses and Dissertations
* Open Access databases

Proactive Librarian MOOC Engagement:: Identification of Candidate Open Access Learning Materials and Textbooks for Massive Open Online Courses
March 18, 2013 | Gerard McKiernan
*** Spoiler Alert > Possible Duplicate Posting ***

Colleagues/

There is true potential for librarians to become proactively engaged in MOOCs but identifying candidate Open Access learning materials and textbooks for current (and future) MOOC courses.

The process:

1)  For each course, identify the non-Open Access learning materials and textbooks.

2)  Identify potential possible alternatives, using existing directories and search end sites, many of which have populated the _OATS: Open Access Textbooks_ LibGuide (http://instr.iastate.libguides.com/oats), or other methods.

[MOOCS]
March 1, 2013 | Stephen Fugale

Has anyone approached any of the MOOC providers seeking to “replace” the current enterprise/university wide LMS with a MOOC. With no or limited intent to scale broadly beyond current student enrollment? Completed a detail functional assessment vs. any of the existing commercial or open source LMS offerings?

 

Thanks,

Phonar - free and open undergraduate photography class

I saw the BBC article (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-20495489) on this yesterday. The MOOCs that are interesting, IMHO, are the ones like these that explore the possibilities of open education. Creativity and Multicultural Communication (http://www.cdlprojects.com/cmc11blog/) uses similar tech, I think. The facilitators of that course try to keep it going outside of the course window, blurring the line between course and community.

Stanford professor Sebastian Thrun's Introduction to Artificial Intelligence made headlines from the New York Times to the Huffington Post for having 160,000 students sign up, but did you know that none of the 248 students getting a perfect grade were actually enrolled at Stanford? Clearly, the role of the classroom in higher education is changing and Massively Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are leading the way. How will extending high-quality science education to more people change how research is done? Will MOOCs less to more factual discussions of controversial scientific topics like climate change and genetically modified organisms? Will the "flipped classroom" enable schools to get the spiraling cost of higher...

Announcing LMSunSIG 2013!
November 16, 2012 | Apostolos Koutropoulos
Greetings everyone!
                        
The 2nd annual LMS unconference (a NERCOMP SIG*, an unSIG) will be held on January 25, 2013 at the Southbridge Hotel and Conference Center in Southbridge, MA. This is a unique opportunity to approach LMS issues in a platform neutral environment, sharing and learning strategies for system assessment, implementation, training, design and support in all relevant areas of the campus. 

The unSIG format empowers participants to craft the conference program and provides opportunities for them to become the presenters. Participants, rather than event organizers, determine the topics covered in session tracks. This means that the agenda is not predetermined months in advance, but instead will include the issues and concerns that are most significant to attendees on the day of the conference.

Along with standard LMS...

First-ever Adaptive Spanish MOOC
November 20, 2012 | Scott Rapp
Hi everyone!

I just joined the group and wanted to introduce myself and let you know about the project I'm working on. We recently developed a platform that allows students to learn languages from native video content through interactive exercises. Now that our platform is complete and ready to be used in blended-learning scenarios, we've created a MOOC based on the platform that will teach students Spanish through native content.

It'll run from January 21st through April 8th next year, and we're excited to be the first to integrate an adaptive platform into a MOOC, especially since so many critics highlight assessment as the biggest shortcoming of most MOOCs. 

I'd love to get your feedback on what we're doing - do you think an adaptive platform is the solution to the assessment difficulties inherent in MOOCs? Do you think a foreign language can be effectively taught in this format? Any suggestions from...

MOOC Experiences
October 10, 2012 | Jason Blanchard
Hi all! I'm looking forward to using this space to discuss massive online courses and other open learning experiences as they relate to teaching, learning and educational institutions. There has been quite a bit of buzz around this over the past few months, and I'm hoping we can use this opportunity to start collecting our blog posts and Twitter reactions in an ongoing dialogue.

Perhaps an interesting place to start is by reflecting on our own experiences (or non-experiences) with MOOCs. As educational technology practitioners, I think we are in a unique position to learn by being introspective about this paradigm. Observing and reflecting on what works and what doesn't work will help us steer large-scale, open learning initiatives in a productive direction.

Have you participated in a MOOC? If so, what was your motivation? Was it a positive learning experience? How did it compare to your "formal...
