Massive Open Online Courses

Hello students! Do you know anything about MOOCs? If NO, this post is for you!

By the end of 2013, most top universities had started to offer some sort of 
MOOC (massive open online course). Now, we are starting to see the MOOC product move into both the corporate and the private realm. 

There is no longer any excuse for not learning new skills. Everyone can learn new things and change their careers without leaving their home. It couldn't be easier! Here you can learn everything - both cooking and creating applications. And almost all courses are free.

 If you are considering a MOOC for yourself or your organization, you’ll first need to determine which tool you will use to build the course.

FUTURE LEARN

If talking about language learning, I really love Language courses from Future Learn. Here you can not only learn a new language, but explore new cultures and discover work and travel opportunities. FutureLearn is owned by The Open University, a British-based university that has long specialized in distance education. FutureLearn partners with dozens of universities and cultural institutions around the world to provide courses. Courses contain video, audio and articles. Plus, discussion topics are meant to stimulate conversation between learners.

Most courses offer the option of learning for free or upgrading. If you learn for free, you have access to all the course material except for tests for the duration of the course plus two more weeks. If you upgrade, you have unlimited access to course materials during and after the course, have access to tests and receive a certificate upon completion.

Courses are usually six to ten weeks long and require two to five hours of work per week.


Courses are flexible, you can start now and study at your own pace. Being able to register for free and many MOOCs are free certificate courses. Engage and feedback with your fellow learners. Deadlines are flexible according to your schedule.
