MOOCs
MOOCs fit in with what we have learned simply because their delivery is online. Many MOOCs allow for interaction between students and instructors. I feel that a MOOC can provide constructivism and connectivism but that depends on the mode of information that is provided. If I watch a show on television, I feel less like … Continue reading MOOCs →
Read MoreMOOC (Fleisher)
I am still struggling with MOOCs or the idea of them. This could be because I am still struggling to let go of the idea of a full-fledged face-to-face classroom and all of the benefits it brings which out weighs online learning. Through the reading, it seems, MOOCs offer little interaction between teacher and student … Continue reading MOOC (Fleisher) →
Read MoreMOOCs!
While MOOCs are online courses, I do not feel that they meet the requirements of the courses we have been learning to design. I do not think they belong as a CREDIT course in the K-12 environment, but I could see them being used as an enrichment option for some of our more mature students … Continue reading MOOCs! →

I’m honestly not sure that MOOCs have a place in what we’ve discussed through out the course of the semester beyond the fact that they are a form of digital/online learning. While I understand the point off MOOCs and the possible benefits they offer, I don’t see much of a correlation between the structured, motivating, … Continue reading MOOCS →

How do MOOCs fit in what we have learned so far? I have to say I am personally fascinated by the possibility of exploring MOOC’s…
Read MoreWhat to do with MOOCs? Hmm……
My initial reaction, at the beginning of the course when we were first exposed to MOOCs, was that these courses offer a means of providing lifelong learning opportunities with access to experts in their respective fields. As with much of what we have researched pertaining to online education I find that MOOCs are designed for … Continue reading What to do with MOOCs? Hmm…… →
Read MoreMOOCs – McQuiddy
After reading through the articles, I’ve become a bit pessimistic about the idea of MOOCs. When I first heard of MOOCs (at the beginning of this course) I was very intrigued by the idea. Cost effective for both students and schools sounds pretty good, right? Also, the opportunity to interact with students and field … Continue reading MOOCs – McQuiddy →
Read MoreMOOCs and ME : Not So Fast
I looked back at the blog I posted at the end of September on MOOCs. I was having a hard time understanding how this type of learning would be possible in my classroom because I couldn’t quite “wrap my head around it”. Those were the words I actually used. I believe my confusion was … Continue reading MOOCs and ME : Not So Fast →

MOOC – Massive Open Online Course… and they do mean massive! I could not believe the size of some of the courses. But if only about 4% of students complete the course how can they be considered successful? I can see how they would appeal to self-regulated learners, adults and college level students. I can … Continue reading MOOC →

I have taken a MOOC. It was offered by Stanford and was entitled “How to Learn Math”. The instructor was Dr. Jo Boaler. I took it because Jo Boaler is a “rock star” in math education right now and it … Continue reading →
