[...] The term xMOOC is applied to organisations and plaforms like udacity, coursera and edX that provide *one* ready-to-use interpretation of the MOOC model. They focus on concise, targeted video content – with short videos rather than full-length lectures to wade through – and use automated testing to check students’ understanding as they work through the content.While they include discussion forums, and allow people to bounce ideas around and discuss learning together, the centre of the course is the instructor-guided lesson. Each student’s journey/trajectory through the course is linear and based on the absorption and understanding of fixed competencies. Learning is seen as something that can be tested and certified.

A great article. But what do you thing about tMOOC. This is the name that I have do to the task type of MOOC that I introduce in another article (http://revistaeducacionvirtual.com/mooc-resultados-reales/) but that is referenced on an interesting article (http://lisahistory.net/wordpress/2012/08/three-kinds-of-moocs/).
Is an intermediate an interesting way of teach by tasks. Why not?

I’ll try to explain more. Consider the following video (http://youtu.be/Ptac4d4bHow) (yes, a tie) and think MOOC types to perform. cMOOC, xMOOC and tMOOC.

- XMOOC: We see the video (when you want) and we put a few pictures in the evaluation of steps to get the tie, and if we choose the right one, that well, we won a badge.
- CMOOC: We see the video (in the week to tell us) and we put some pictures that we have to decide if it is well placed or not, we ask teachers and other students if they have questions about the steps, etc.. We are in the week of the course.
- TMOOC: The task is to learn to become the tie and send a photo to the course with our tie made. We have at our disposal at all times, several texts videos, forums, teachers, etc.. Homework. The problem is who will tell us if we have sent the tie is on straight? Is another student? Do multiple? Do we put all the photos and you mark those that are evil and subtracts scores among all? Sure there are many ways to assess this.

I think the task system is better (in my opinion) but still need to be improved to support these things MOOC

“cMOOCs are discursive communities creating knowledge together. Based on my experience in the MOOCMOOC, I’m a big fan, and I’d love to see them get a bit more attention.”

And I’d love to assist. Will you or anyone interested in reviewing individual MOOC courses please be in touch with me at robert at moocnewsandreviews dot com? I’d love to talk with you more about what we’re trying to do without spamming up your comments section.

Sincerely,

Robert
