will be discussing Are MOOCs a revolution or a failure?

MOOCs are considered a revolutionary way of educating the masses, so much so that more and more recognised institutions have started accepting and organising them systematically. MOOCs also present very high dropout rates. If people enroll but never complete the courses, what lessons are there to be learned about MOOCs? What are some practical suggestions about choosing the right MOOC for us?

The 4th annual MoodleMoot Virtual Conference (MMVC15) for 2015 is a free annual webathon event that will take place from August 7-9, 2015 on MMVC15 WizIQ Webathon and on MoodleMoot Moodle learning environments. Click to get the Count Down to MMVC15
