Digital transformation in education: The FutureLearn view

Digital transformation in education: The FutureLearn view | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.information-age.com - January 2, 2019 11:59 AM

In this piece, Nigel Smith of The Open University-owned FutureLearn, reflects on digital transformation in education over the past six years since MOOCs (massive open online courses) first burst onto the scene

 

There is no choice but to innovate in scaling the supply of education. Otherwise, people desperate to learn are excluded.

Digital transformation has had a huge impact on the education sector. Six years ago ‘MOOCs’ (Massive Open Online Courses) became a buzzword with the New York Times going so far as to say 2012 was “the year of the MOOC.”

MOOC Platforms : a primer - biggies, newbies & freebooters | Donald Clark Plan B

MOOC Platforms : a primer - biggies, newbies & freebooters | Donald Clark Plan B | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.ie - December 5, 2013 6:33 AM

As the MOOCosphere expanded, more and more platforms sprung into action. Some have already delivered large numbers of MOOCs, such as the open source platform EdX and the Coursera. The other big ticket platform is Udacity which has now morphed into a specific market – corporate training. Although the wellspring was in the US, the UK, Europe, India, Russia, Brazil and many others have joined the party. The global LMS/VLE vendors (Blackboard, Desire2learn, SAP) and Moodle have jumped on the bandwagon. Some so-called MOOC platforms aren’t really platforms at all – they’re aggregators.
