1. MOOCs are seen as the third digital revolution in higher education, following e-learning in the early 2000s and open educational resources in 2007.
2. As with previous digital innovations, MOOCs have led to debates around quality as they relate to technological changes, shifts in teaching and learning culture, and questions of quality assurance and innovation strategies.
3. There are many open questions around how to define and measure quality in MOOCs, including what criteria and metrics should be used and whether factors like course size, completion rates, or learner experiences are appropriate measures.

3. Die Qualitätsdebatte
Alle digitalen (R)evolutionen führen zu
einer Qualitätsdebatte
• Von der digitalen und technologischen
Innovation
• Über den Wandel der Lehr-/Lernkultur
• Zu Qualitätsfragen und Innovationsstrategien

(Wie) kann man sie messen?
Was sind Qualitätskriterien?
Gute MOOCs – schlechte MOOC?
Was sind wertvolle MOOCs?
Sind sie besser, je massiver?
Sind sie besser, je niedriger die DropoutQuote?
• Sind Dropouts eigentlich überhaupt ein
Kriterium für Qualität von MOOCs?
7. 1. „Massive“ Zielgruppen?
• „Change from „no target audience―thinking to having one in mind, even if it is
wide. Take into acount new participation
profiles.―

8. 2. Gemischte Gruppen?
• „Be aware that inviting the world
means to bring in the worlds
opinion (existing groups might
be disturbed)―
• „Mixing campus and MOOC
Students might be challenging:
drive in/by learners vs. highly
motivated learners who want a
masters degree.―

9. 3. Vielfältige Lernkontexte
• „Be aware that the quality paradigm
―fitness for purpose‖ is not working for
MOOCs because MOOCs mean learning
across contexts and purposes.―
• „Quality measures become
individualised, quality methods like self- &
peer-assessment and –reflection are
suitable.―

10. 4. Selbststeuerung als
Qualitätsfaktor
„Be open about your requirements of selforganisation, provide scaffolding for those
who lack that self-organisation.―

12. 6. Pädagogische Prinzipien
• „Use peer-to-peer pedagogy: peerlearning, peer-review, peerassessment, collaborative
learning, multiple learning pathways and
exploratory learning.―
• „Understand that teaching is not a
prerequsite of learning.―

13. 7. MOOCs sind „ChoiceBased“
• „Get away from
– the notion that „ending a MOOC early― means
dropping out
– looking at MOOCs like
(structured, paced, timebound) courses―
• „Be aware that MOOC learning is an optin/out learning model―
• „MOOCs follow voluntary sequencing and
are based on choices. The choices they
offer make their attractiveness.―
