Policy
Losada, Mariana, AMUE, France (CHAIR)
The advent of MOOCs raises new questions and challenges in terms of higher education policy. Considered as disruptive by some and just a new way of teaching and learning by others, Europeis responding in diverse ways to MOOCs. In some countries, national initiatives have been launched, and in addition to MOOCs undertaken by individual universities, a growing number of university networks, foundations, established private sector and start-up companies are also getting involved.
What are the main challenges higher education institutions face? What should the level of implementation be? Should there be a national or European strategy for MOOCs? Who should be involved in their design and delivery? What are the opportunities in terms of outreach, knowledge transfer and capacity building in developing countries? This forum gathers decision makers, leaders and managers from European universities as well as from regional, national and supranational authorities. It aims at sharing information about strategies developed across the continent and identifying synergies among groups of stakeholders.
Experience
Delgado-Kloos, Carlos, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain (CHAIR)
This forum gathers practitioners interested in experiences and best practices in MOOCs and MOOC-related contexts. This includes the experiences of authors who have been running MOOCs. It also includes the experiences of those who have been supporting the production of MOOCs, have been involved in the selection of MOOCs, or have been analysing data for their university. It also includes experiences of using MOOC-related technology in other contexts, in particular, for on-campus education. It aims to share experiences, results, and solutions and to document problems.
Research
Cress, Ulrike, KMRC, Knowledge Media Research Center, Germany (CHAIR)
Business
Benard, Michel, GOOGLE (CHAIR)
EMOOCs 2014 will also offer a series of workshops, meetings and the tutorial “All you need to know about MOOCs”.
