Although researchers were excited with the vast amounts of MOOC data being collected, the benefits of this data did not stand to the expectations due to several challenges. The analyses of MOOC data are very time-consuming and labor-intensive, and require a highly advanced set of technical skills, often not available to the education researchers. Because of this MOOC data analyses are rarely done before the courses end, limiting the potential of data to impact the student learning outcomes and experience. In this paper we introduce MOOCito (MOOC intervention tool), a user-friendly software platform for the analysis of MOOC data, that focuses on conducting data-informed instructional interventions and course experimentations. We cover important design principles behind MOOCito and provide an overview of the trends in MOOC research leading to its development. Although a work-in-progress, in this paper, we outline the prototype of MOOCito and the results of a user evaluation study that focused on system’s perceived usability and ease-of-use. The results of the study are discussed, as well as their practical implications.","author":[{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Person","name":"Vitomir

Since 2012 up to day, there are many MOOCs introduced in many platforms. Some of the platforms are namely Coursera, edX, NovoEd, FutureLearn, Open2Study. For an instance Coursera has more than 700 courses in their platform. Although there is increase demand for online courses, very less percentage of participants complete the courses. Some researchers claim this is due to lack of self discipline, yet it is still sceptic on the reasons for higher dropout rates. However, examining reviews of the courses by participants and experiencing by ourselves as active MOOC participants it is understood that not all the courses meet the user goals or effective to the users. In this empirical research we tried to evaluate the effectiveness of MOOCs. We enrolled in 22 courses from 5 different platforms and evaluated the courses while actively participating. We used 2 evaluation frameworks based on empirical research in this process. Evaluation results indicated a quality variation in the platforms and in between courses within the same platform as well. Our conclusion strongly emphasize the requirement of quality control in designing and implementing of any MOOC course as many courses lacks to meet the user goals proving a quality learning experience.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"EVALUATING EFFECTIVENESS OF MOOCS USING EMPIRICAL TOOLS: LEARNERS PERSPECTIVE","attachmentId":43778434,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/23319027/EVALUATING_EFFECTIVENESS_OF_MOOCS_USING_EMPIRICAL_TOOLS_LEARNERS_PERSPECTIVE","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/23319027/EVALUATING_EFFECTIVENESS_OF_MOOCS_USING_EMPIRICAL_TOOLS_LEARNERS_PERSPECTIVE"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="2" data-entity-id="43152107" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/43152107/MoocViz_A_large_scale_open_access_collaborative_data_analytics_platform_for_MOOCs">MoocViz: A large scale, open access, collaborative, data analytics platform for MOOCs</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="172503" href="https://mit.academia.edu/FranckDernoncourt">Franck Dernoncourt</a></div><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"MoocViz: A large scale, open access, collaborative, data analytics platform for MOOCs","attachmentId":63413275,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/43152107/MoocViz_A_large_scale_open_access_collaborative_data_analytics_platform_for_MOOCs","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/43152107/MoocViz_A_large_scale_open_access_collaborative_data_analytics_platform_for_MOOCs"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="3" data-entity-id="66310175" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/66310175/A_proposal_for_Monitoring_the_Intervention_Strategy_on_the_learning_of_MOOC_learners">A proposal for Monitoring the Intervention Strategy on the learning of MOOC learners</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="7046052" href="https://uam.academia.edu/RuthCobos">Ruth Cobos</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">2020</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">Insufficient feedback and lack of interaction among instructors and learners affect negatively learner retention and engagement in MOOCs. These factors, paired with the feeling of isolation, have a high influence on learners who do not complete the course in which they have enrolled. To overcome this situation, we propose a system to provide periodically MOOC learners with visual information on a Web-based Learner Dashboard, showing them their progress and engagement in the MOOC. This provided information is part of an Intervention Strategy on the learning of these learners. The system offers MOOC instructors to access to a Web-based Instructor Dashboard that shows the interest in this service by the learners and, therefore, facilitates evaluating the success or failure of the Intervention Strategy.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"A proposal for Monitoring the Intervention Strategy on the learning of MOOC learners","attachmentId":77554317,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/66310175/A_proposal_for_Monitoring_the_Intervention_Strategy_on_the_learning_of_MOOC_learners","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/66310175/A_proposal_for_Monitoring_the_Intervention_Strategy_on_the_learning_of_MOOC_learners"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="4" data-entity-id="41463971" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/41463971/Evolution_of_MOOC_designs_providers_and_learners_and_the_related_MOOC_research_and_publications_from_2008_to_2018">Evolution of MOOC designs, providers and learners and the related MOOC research and publications from 2008 to 2018</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="14754093" href="https://uni-bonn.academia.edu/ChristianMStracke">Christian M.

Though MOOCs have a recent history, much has been articulated and MOOCs are claimed to be a revolution in education while some others claimed that MOOCs are a hype that will eventually fade away. In this context, this research aims to investigate MOOC research by reviewing MOOC literature. The findings of the study suggest that MOOC interest tend to continue, and the evidence-based empirical MOOC research is increasing steadily. MOOC research area is dominated mostly by educational research; however, other research areas demonstrate that there is an interest from other research areas which is thought to be promising. Regional interest demonstrates that USA, Spain and UK are leading countries; and most interest stems from developed countries with Anglo-Saxon cultures. Likewise, the leading higher education institutions in MOOC research are located in Europe or USA. It is also promising that nearly half of the MOOC research is funded by stated agencies. The study concludes that MOOCs are evolving and, based on research findings, it is moving from Slope of Enlightenment to Plateau of Productivity in Gartner hype cycle.</p><div

resources that instructors of massive open online courses (MOOCs) use to improve the personalization of their MOOCs. Following email interviews with 25 MOOC and open education leaders regarding MOOC personalization, a questionnaire was developed. This questionnaire was then completed by 152 MOOC instructors from around the world. While more than 8 in 10 respondents claimed heavy involvement in designing their MOOCs, only one-third placed extensive effort on meeting unique learner needs during course design, and even fewer respondents were concerned with personalization during course delivery. An array of instructional practices, technology tools, and content resources were leveraged by instructors to personalize MOOC-based learning environments. Aligning with previous research, the chief resources and tools employed in their MOOCs were discussion forums, video lectures, supplemental readings, and practice quizzes. In addition, self-moni...</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Pushing Toward a More Personalized MOOC: Exploring Instructor Selected Activities, Resources, and Technologies for MOOC Design and Implementation","attachmentId":107689136,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/109619078/Pushing_Toward_a_More_Personalized_MOOC_Exploring_Instructor_Selected_Activities_Resources_and_Technologies_for_MOOC_Design_and_Implementation","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/109619078/Pushing_Toward_a_More_Personalized_MOOC_Exploring_Instructor_Selected_Activities_Resources_and_Technologies_for_MOOC_Design_and_Implementation"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="9" data-entity-id="84352170" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/84352170/MOOC_Platforms_a_Review_and_Comparison">MOOC Platforms: a Review and Comparison</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="177574290" href="https://independent.academia.edu/UmmyGustiSalamah">Ummy Gusti Salamah</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">International Journal of Engineering & Technology, 2018</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">For development courses in the Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) requires the support of good technological infrastructure.
