Short Description

The characteristics of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) present unique challenges for instructional design. To address those challenges and disseminate design knowledge in the MOOC context, this study describes and discusses a MOOC precedent on the Coursera Platform as a design case. The design case demonstrates how critical decisions were made based on the analysis of the course characteristics and MOOC-related problems, and also summarizes the lessons learned from the design process.
