MOOC platforms

OpenupEd now offers multiple MOOC platforms for any organisation. This new service allows organisations to choose the MOOC platform that fits their needs, e.g., depending on the language of MOOC offering and the preferred pedagogical model.

Several studies in general demonstrate that the uptake of MOOCs in Europe is maturing at a much higher level compared to the US. This is mainly an achievement of the current, partially language-bound platforms. Some HEIs are connected to one of the big MOOC platforms but most European HEIs host their own MOOC platform or join a regional collaboration hosting a platform. One integrated European MOOC platform is hardly an option given the various languages, different cultures, regional needs and autonomy, etc. Instead we must cherish the diversity of the European MOOC initiatives and see the segmented MOOC approach as a strength in addressing the needs in each own market. In this context OpenupEd is not using nor advocating one single MOOC platform and offers multiple choices to the local needs of connected organisations.
