Three themes emerge from recent MOOC experiments, write the authors:
- Openness – new approaches to online learning, including models for scalable provision that may generate revenues, and promote open learning
- Revenue models – different revenue models taking the established ideas from technology start-ups
- Service Disaggregation – experimentation with business models that include unbundling and re-bundling of courses and delivery related services.
There are some good tables in the document itself, including a nice distinction between xMOOC and cMOOC, different models of course provision, pedagogic dimensions, self-assessment, and emerging business models. (The preview tool said I had exceeded my bandwidth limit - I don't see why people use those user-hostile 'preview' tools). Direct link (20 page PDF).
