Webinar: Busting Through the Maze: Building and Supporting our own MOOC

Event Date & Time

Event Description

On January 26th, we are excited to announce that ETS staff members Ian Linkletter and Sharon Hu will be leading a Collaborate session on the lessons they learnt from the latest offering of the Faculty of Education’s MOOC. Having just delivered “Reconciliation Through Indigenous Education” for the second time, the MOOC development team will reflect back on key questions:

• What sort of development process was used to create content for a new online platform?
• What sorts of activities and assignments were used to engage students in such a massive course?
• How was high quality multimedia developed, and what special considerations were made to accommodate openness?
• How did a small team manage to support so many students?

The team members will share key lessons learned from the design, development, and delivery of the Faculty of Education’s MOOC during a T.E.L.L (Tuesday ETUG Lunch and Learn) session, hosted by BC-based organization Educational Technology Users Group (ETUG). Ian was the tech lead on “Reconciliation Through Indigenous Education”, while Sharon managed the media production in the edX MOOC. 

Please join us at 11:00am in IKBLC 181 to view the webinar together or if you wish to attend virtually join the Collaborate session: https://sas.elluminate.com/m.jnlp?sid=727&password=M.8BB0A08544A89B280F30DAB935B03D
