Description
A massive open online course (MOOC) is an online course aimed at large-scale interactive participation and open access via the web. In addition to traditional course materials such as videos, readings, and problem sets, MOOCs provide interactive user forums that help build a community for the students, professors, and TAs. MOOCs are a recent development in distance education.
This BoF will discuss relevance and options of MOOCs for an CS curriculum, and will investigate the potential role of OGF.
