Serials and the MOOC
May 3, 2013 | Faye leibowitz
My name is Faye Leibowitz, and I am the co-editor of the "Balance Point" column in the Elsevier library science journal Serials Review. The "Balance Point" serves as a forum for multiple authors who work in areas related to serials and who present different viewpoints about current issues and controversial topics related to serials. In my next column, I will explore the topic "Serials and the MOOC." I would like to explore how MOOC instructors and students utilize periodicals (both print and online) and article databases in their courses. I'm interested in exploring how/if subscription databases are used, how and where MOOC students access print journals, or any other topics relating to the use of serial publications in the MOOC environment. Would you be interested in sharing your ideas about this topic in a contribution to my column? Please let me know by May 15 if you are interested in submitting a contribution. Ideally, contributions should be three to five pages long, double...

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...

Adoption of Open Resources in MOOC?

I am greatly interested in the adoption of Open Resources in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).

I am interested in all types of ORs, notably Open Educational Resources (OERs), Open Textbooks,  Open Data, Open Access journals, and institutional and subject Open Access repositories, among others.

I am particularly interested in the motivation for such adoption and the participation of librarians.

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.

3) Create a spreadsheet (or database) for each propriety resource and their potential...

MOOCs Are Not The Enemy at "Theorizing the Web" CUNY
March 5, 2013 | Jason Blanchard
I really enjoyed this fresh perspective on MOOCs by Bonnie Stewart: http://theory.cribchronicles.com/2013/03/04/moocs-are-not-the-enemy-sorta/

Snippet:
--
"Haraway‘s cyborg, on the other hand, is what might be termed a networked individual, illegitimate offspring of what Haraway calls the “informatics of domination,” but still subversive to the very forces that created her. S/he is an ironic hybrid of human and technology who breaks down binaries that otherwise seem naturalized and totalizing. The cyborg recognizes in technologies the possibility of “great human satisfaction, as well as a matrix of complex dominations. Cyborg imagery can suggest a way out of the maze of dualisms in which we have explained our bodies and our tools to ourselves.” (1991) The cyborg is complicit, a part of this digital...

Massively Open Glass Ceiling

[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,

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...

It looks like Instructure is getting into MOOCs with https://www.canvas.net/



It looks like the target use case for these courses are existing Canvas clients, and Instructure's goal is to provide a new entry point for LMS customers. I suspect Blackboard is trying to do the same with CourseSites, but I don't know, Canvas just seems…. Friendlier?

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...
