Opportunities and challenges for the future of MOOCs and open education in Europe

cover
This chapter presents intermediate results from the OpenEdu study, carried out by DG JRC IPTS on behalf of DG EAC. It argues that open education goes beyond MOOCs and OER. It demonstrates this by proposing dimensions that are key for an understanding of open education and for the further development of open education by HE institutions in Europe. In addition, results from three of the main studies of OpenEdu are taken to discuss the motivations and barriers for opening up education by HE institutions (OpenCases), the uptake of open education in five European countries (OpenSurvey) and recognition and assessment practices in MOOCs (OpenCred).
