What is a MOOC?
Massive Open Online CourseMOOCs are free courses - Open meaning Free, not necessarily adaptable resources.
Massive means lots of students 100,000+ students registered on some courses
No credit for courses (at the moment) can be a between 2 and 6 hours a week (recommended) 2 - 8 weeks long
Opening up education for all, no prerequisites,

2. Learner empowerment - guiding not leading
3. Learning plan and clear orientations
4. Collaboration - team working, discussion forums
5. Social Networking
6. Peer assistance
7. Knowledge Generation and creation
8. Interest groups
9. Assessment and Peer feedback
10. Media Technology enhanced learning - encourage creativity and try new things

learners engage in discussion or argument (eg discussion forum)
learners interact across time and space (eg social-network tools such as Twitter, Facebook)
learner seeks and collates information (eg search engines, web browsers)

(Portus mini) MOOC content
Changing the learning landscape
Portus mini MOOC structure18 hours of study plus optional activities that would double this to 36 hours. Students would have online quizzes to assess the 18 hours and more open ended questions to answer via 9 x 250 word blog posts for the other 18.6 hours per week: suggested three 2-hour sessions per week, covering nine topics. For each topic the student: •views CITE video (max 15 minutes each) – filmed in Southampton and Portus•looks at the other material available (eprints, links to the Portus website, external links, photos, other videos, other resources like chronozoom)•answers quiz questions•makes use of the discussion board e.g. posts a question, answers a question, writes a reflective blog post, comments on a blog post•may use social media to interconnect the above, and MOOC site needs to curate this•optionally writes a 250 word blog post for peer review by the community (during the additional 2 hours assigned to the task) and contributes to peer review of others’ blog post. Students can only contribute to peer review if they have posted your own document. There will be one final video and further informationaccessible having completed all 9 topics successfully.
