The learner driven 360 to drive success in MOOCs
Download as PPTX, PDF6 likes1,429 views
The document discusses defining success in MOOCs from the perspective of learners in the OLDSMOOC MOOC. It finds that learners defined success differently based on their individual contexts and goals. Making connections with other learners through sharing personal information helped facilitate learning. Prior experience with technology influenced self-efficacy, with more experienced learners feeling more comfortable. Learners also adapted their learning approach and self-directed their experience in the MOOC to meet their needs.

Achieving Learning
Helen: “Locating [a project
partner] and realising that
we had corresponding
aims was as an important
support for learning in the
complex environment of
OLDSMOOC.”

- 15. Research Questions How do learners define success in a MOOC? To what extent do connection, self-efficacy and self-directed strategies facilitate learning in a MOOC?
