Thank you, Malini!

Hello,

Please you are kindly requested to see some papers in my profile.

Kind regards,

NP 

I'm grateful to you, Nikolaos and Harshvardhan!

Ulyana,

Maybe you are interested in taking a MOOC about Instructional Design in elearning. The link is https://www.udemy.com/instructional-design-for-elearning/

I took it a few months ago and I liked the information (not so the instructional designed used in the course). However, I think it can give you a lot of information, especially now that you are starting in this "crazy" world of the Instructional Designers.

The instructional design of a MOOC is very specific, and if you have taken some MOOCs you will realize that most of them use videos, readings, forums, quizzes and assignments. It varies from provider to provider but those are the basic instructional components.

I have a blog about MOOCs. The blog is MOOCstream: http://moocstream.blogspot.com by the way.... I haven't been able to updated for a few months but U think ti can help you.

I also have a scoopit with a lot of information about MOOCs: http://www.scoop.it/t/moocstream

you can filter it by topics and I'm sure you are going to narrow down the information and find what you need. I'm also working in my thesis about MOOCs, more specifically how Latinos learn in a MOOC environment.

If you would like to chat with me, maybe I can give you tips for your new adventure. Let me know and decide how to connect

Good Luck!

Dear Ramon, thank you so much! I'll contact you as soon as study these recommended materials.

Kindest regards, Ulyana.

You need to decide Ulyana if you want to replicate the current quality of instructional design in MOOCs or do something of quality.  Most MOOCs are about replicating current instruction (not even online but F2F instruction)  and that has problems.   High quality online instruction in a MOOC tends to look different than the traditional MOOCs popular and easily replicated.  

Take a look at the legal issues facing the MIT/Harvard MOOCs.  That will help you understand some things to avoid.  

My general feeling about MOOCs is that it's a passing fad, and is past it's prime.  Remember Second Life -- still around but.....

Others will disagree and hopefully add comments which will help you decide about what it takes to make a quality MOOC rather than just another MOOC.

Good luck

Thank you, Raymond, for this thought-provoking reply. I'll search for the information about those legal issues.

The book the steps to complex learning: A systematic approach to four component to instructional design. http://www.tensteps.info

Very recommended.

Ulyana,

Congratulations on this opportunity!

I recommend the book MOOCs and Open Education Around the World by Routledge. It won first place for the book award, Division of Distance Learning, Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT).

Best wishes,

One essential resource in this field is the Book from Charles M. Reigeluth "Instructional Design Theories and Models". In this book you find classical ID Models, which should be a good start for further Research. 

Thank you, Tanja, Barbara and Jimmy, for your recommendations.
