Paper Abstract:
|
This paper aims to develop a model of measuring student engagement in a blended-MOOC context. Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are those that are delivered, usually by leading universities, with a promise to provide free high-quality education to an unlimited number of learners. They offer an opportunity for blended course design, where instructors can integrate MOOC content within face to face educational activities and components. Three internationally recognized existing frameworks, the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), UK Engagement Survey (UKES) and Student Engagement Questionnaire (SEQ) were selected as a theoretical framework. The model has nine indicators which provide information about distinct aspects of student engagement. These indicators were confirmed by a panel of 35 experts. A trial evaluation was conducted as a pilot study with 13 students who had taken a course in the blended MOOC format. |
