Making moocs on a budget/Course description

What’s the course about?
Making MOOCs on a Budget is an online course designed to teach you how to develop a Massive Open Online Course at an affordable cost.

What will I learn?
The course will teach you about:
 * Planning a MOOC-building project
 * Designing MOOCs based on pedagogical approaches that facilitate effective learning,
 * Tools and techniques for creating videos and other learning materials,
 * Sourcing relevant learning materials from the web for your MOOC,
 * Developing assessments at large scale through the use of quizzes and peer assignments,
 * Promoting your MOOC and retaining your learners.

What’s involved?
Through the materials provided on this course, you will learn about low-cost techniques for developing and managing massive open online courses (MOOCs).

Materials are arranged to deal with specific topics, and information is presented through a combination of videos, written text, and quizzes.

The Course Team has as much as possible tried to practice what they preach: this MOOC is made in a lean way, which means DIY video production, and re-use of content and student contributions.

What prerequisites should I have, if any?
Experience in a classroom setting, and familiarity with pedagogy and/or making online courses will be an advantage, though it is not a requirement for participating in this MOOC.

Discussions will be hosted on Linkedin. In order to participate in the external discussions, you need to set up/ log in to your Linkedin account and join the moocs4all group (Links to an external site.) where you can comment and discuss with fellow learners on this course.
