This document discusses the localization of open online courses (MOOCs) for different contexts and languages. It provides examples of MOOCs from TU Delft being reused by organizations around the world. It also describes the Kienhoc platform in Vietnam which translates high-quality open licensed MOOCs into Vietnamese to make world-class education more accessible in that country through a crowdsourcing translation model.
