Bringing the MOOC into the Classroom

File pdf 240KB

Recent advances have integrated the pedagogy of a MOOC into the structure of the classroom as a blended or “flipped” course. This can move some of the content and peer learning out of the classroom to both maximize student interaction [through real or virtual teams] while allowing for more in-depth classroom learning.

In this experientially based session, we will briefly describe how we developed a very successful MOOC and then show how many of those approaches could be integrated into a blended classroom. Participants will then apply this model to one of their class sessions.
