D&D - Massive Open Online Courses

Full Session: Concurrent Session

Short Description

Abstract 1t: This practice proposal reports the design and implementation of a methodology for selecting an adequate platform for a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) in Management Education. Based on provider characteristics and platform features, a generic evaluation matrix for MOOC platforms was developed and subsequently matched with instructional design criteria. A case study showcases the selection methodology for a MOOC on value-based management. The generic evaluation matrix provides in-depth analysis of context-specific affordances for the instructional design of MOOCs.

Abstract 2: This research proposal reports a study investigating the effectiveness of first principles of instruction in the context of a mini-MOOC. Data were collected from two main sources. While the MOO-TALQ survey asked student ratings of instructional quality of the MOO-Tutorial, certification tests measured student-learning achievement. In this study 2410 subjects participated between January 12th , 2016 and January 31st , 2016. The findings of this study will be presented.
