| Abstract
|
:
|
The increased prevalence of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) offered by top-tier colleges, institutions, and universities has altered the typical educational experience, and has made professors, educators, policy-makers, and researchers examine how these courses can be adopted and used best. MOOCs provide full open-access to recorded lectures, tests, readings, discussion forums, and interactive activities or labs designed to mimic the intellectual and communal experience a student would receive in person in a live classroom. These free courses are of increasing interest to students because of the lack of cost and the ability to learn at convenient times. Moreover, it is frequently believed that additional learning and training can increase employability (Outland, 2014).
