Instellingen voor hoger onderwijs kunnen financieel zwaardere tijden tegemoet zien. Biedt online leren om de markt van een leven lang ontwikkelen aan te boren een kans? Neil Mosley beschrijft hoe Britse universiteiten omgaan met online onderwijs en welke lessen ze kunnen trekken uit het verleden. Ik voeg hier commentaar aan toe, mede vanuit Nederlands perspectief. #levenlangontwikkelen #onlineleren #onderwijs #moocs #edutoot

In de zomervakantie heeft het bedrijf 2U een faillissement aangevraagd. 2U is sinds juni 2021 eigenaar van edX, het bekende platform waar je deel kunt nemen aan massive open online courses en andere online programma’s van onder andere Harvard, MIT en TU Delft.

‘When people who had been prominent in the MOOC research were approached by us, many of them responded along the lines of “I don’t have anything to do with MOOCs anymore and I don’t want to write about them”. It was as if this was a shameful period in their past, now it’s like “MOOCs? No, doesn’t ring a bell, did he play for Chelsea?”’Don’t look back in anger (or anything else) – The Ed Techie #education #moocs https://blog.edtechie.net/mooc/dont-look-back-in-anger-or-anything-else/

Een terugblik op tien jaar massive open online courses
Ongeveer tien jaar geleden was er veel aandacht voor massive open online courses (MOOCs). Aan deze vrij toegankelijke online cursussen namen grote aantallen mensen over de hele wereld aan deel. Melissa Highton van de Universiteit van Edinburgh blijkt in A look back over 10 years of Moocs terug op deze ontwikkeling aan haar universiteit.

Do you know there are "tracks" of online courses available on Leanpub? You can gain knowledge and skills from the authors on Leanpub! Check out the tracks they have so far: https://leanpub.com/bookstore?type=track #courses #learning #MOOCs

Did you know you can take online course "tracks" on Leanpub and learn new stuff? There aren't that many tracks yet, but there's already lots to learn from Leanpub authors! https://leanpub.com/bookstore?type=track #courses #learning #MOOCs

“We were never in it for the money.” Excellent summary of why we got into MOOCs https://www.timeshighereducation.com/campus/look-back-over-10-years-moocs #MOOC #MOOCs #OnlneLearning

ICYMI: Learning online is common these days. I have tried and tested some of the available platforms and am still a fan. Compared to when I started taking #MOOCs the range of possible courses is great. Check out my top 5 online learning sites:

#MOOCs bieten in Kombination mit offenen und Fernlernmethoden beispiellose Möglichkeiten für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung. Wir möchten hier auf die #moodle Kursliste des Niedersächsischen Bildungsservers verweisen, auf dem diverse schulische Bildungskonzepte in meist offenen Kursen zur Verfügung stehen: https://mooc-dev.moodle-nds.de #FediLZ #edubw #Schule #Bildung #Unterricht

Remember MOOCs?

When I am not on here, it usually means I am not on social media at all, or just glancing. Currently I am taking #MOOCs on #linguistics and experiencing problems with my #ubuntu pc again. While my computer does boot again, I do experience #dependency problems. I mean IT-wise. No substance or anything! 🧵 1

As of today, we have 923 621 registered users on the Elements of AI course. Looks like we'll break the 1M mark this year. That'd call for a proper party

I've been reading a paper by Cope and Kalantzis on the future of learning, where they are presenting their own learning platform "CG Scholar". Many of their ideas are great, but much of what they describe sounds like #cMOOCs (they criticize #MOOCs, but seem to be only aware of xMOOCs) plus #LearningAnalytics. Also, some of their critique of conventional teaching/e-learning bordered on strawman arguments. Yes, all the deficits they described exist, but alternative practices exist, too.

Avoid social media user joins yet another platform. I’m looking forward to connecting with colleagues, friends and interesting people.

@netzpolitik_feed Interessant! Dass wusste ich nicht, dass wir da in Ö da mal die Nase vorne haben. Da hilft die kleine Größe des Landes wohl etwas, wobei bei uns durch den Föderalismus mit neuen Bundesländern und den lokalen „Kaisern“ oft genug gute Dinge blockiert werden. Das ist in D definitiv wohl noch viel ärger…

Über die Qualität der -#MOOCs kann man streiten und vor allem… gibt‘s Konsequenzen wenn jemand diese verweigert. Denke nicht.

Anyone has here some good advice or work flows on how to improve writing in a #researchgrant and how generate more #ideas for #research ?

I would be especially interested in good #books, #MOOCs or other resources I can study on my own.

US Justice Dept reaches agreement w UC Berkeley re #accessibility #a11y: "Much of this online content is not accessible to people with disabilities because it lacks captions and transcripts ... and alternative text .... It is also formatted in a way that does not allow individuals with disabilities to access the content using screen readers or other assistive technology." #HigherEd #Moocs https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndca/pr/justice-department-secures-agreement-university-california-berkeley-make-online

To spread the news about a free online course on AI for beginners here on Mastodon too, here’s a nice piece on Wired UK from a couple years ago #ElementsofAI #ArtificialIntelligence #MOOCs #learning #FutureSkills #UniversityofHelsinki #MinnaLearn https://www.wired.co.uk/article/finland-artificial-intelligence-online-course
