Here is what I find breathtaking about MOOCs: for the first time in human history, we have the means to teach hundreds of thousands of people around the world who would not otherwise have any chance of an access to the kinds of specialized subjects offered by higher education, a form of learning formerly reserved largely for the affluent... http://www.scoop.it/t/easy-mooc

Imaginons qu’il y ait un réel développement des MOOCs dans les prochaines années. Certains y voient l’imminence de la fin des universités. Je n’y crois pas.

The word ‘MOOCS’ sounds like a cute and cuddly cousin to George Lucas’s teddy-bear-like Ewoks in a new Star Wars film. They’re far from cuddly, though, threatening much of the higher education universe with extinction — with a lot of help from Indians... http://www.scoop.it/t/easy-mooc

... Prof. Koller evoked images of under-served people in West Africa and Southeast Asia being able for the first time to access high quality, higher education for free through MOOCs, potentially giving them intellectual stimulation (which, as she noted, we all need!) and a foot in the door to better employment possibilities... http://www.scoop.it/t/easy-mooc

... Des entreprises spécialisées comme edX (MIT-Harvard), Coursera, Udacity, sont mises en place pour réaliser les investissements et diffuser les méthodes. Contrairement aux cours précédents, qui se limitaient à diffuser les contenus pédagogiques à distance (comme les cours par correspondance distribués par voie postale dès le milieu du 20e siècle), la nouvelle pédagogie veut tirer partie de la massive interactivité permise par le Web, notamment par les réseaux à très haut débit... http://www.scoop.it/t/easy-mooc

... Students have so far been reluctant to pay for web-based textbooks (can’t sell them back to the store) and no one wants to pay for MOOCs. But if the MOOC was the required space for things like quizzes and tests and the like, students would pay something, or maybe it is something that institutions would pay for and then pass on to students as tuition and fees. http://www.scoop.it/t/easy-mooc

The American college system is staggeringly large: 2,421 four-year institutions enroll about 18.5 million college students. The proportion of Americans with a bachelor’s degree is at an all-time high — a social victory if they’re able to enjoy a positive return on their degrees, which the Pew Research Center estimates at about $550,000 on average... http://www.scoop.it/t/easy-mooc

Souvent quand un nouveau terme, un nouvel acronyme, une nouvelle notion nous vient d’outre atlantique le premier réflexe est de le franciser. C’est logique à la fois d’un point de vue de l’appropriation de l’idée et d’un point de vue de la place de la langue française.
