[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please note that the MOOCs being offered at places like MIT and Stanford cannot yet actually be taken to count towards your degree. There is abundant research out there that the large lecture is one of the worst learning environments for students. Since that's essentially what a MOOC is, I really hesitate to say that they definitely are the future of higher education. There is change coming, yes. But there are a lot of technological "fads" right now in higher education - it is hard to tell what is actually going to endure. Brick & mortar colleges & universities have endured for a long, long time in this country. I wouldn't write them off just yet.[/quote] And yet. Some colleges are requiring kids to do the online class before coming to the actual class, so the prof and students are ready to have a real discussion.[/quote]
