9. MOOC Pedagogy
UOC vs MOOC Model (II)
The best of two worlds (improving UOC)
More videos (but not only videos)
More self-assessment + rapid feedback
More student participation (even as teachers) + P2P evaluation
More flexible scheduling (i.e. evaluation)
Some drawbacks
“Advanced compiler construction” cannot be massive!!!
Continuous evaluation (accreditation) needs tight dates if teacher
feedback is provided, unless individualized
