About the Book

BOOK Review: The first book of this 'MOOC it' series was published in January of 2015 and included as Number 3 in the 2015 "List of the Top 10 Most Popular e-Learning Books." SUMMARY: Whether you are a 'MOOCer' or an 'Anti-MOOC' reader, the 2016 "MOOC it: Massive Open Online Courses in tweets" book follows the year's key MOOCs happenings from India to China to Europe to USA and others to let the reader make up their own mind on whether MOOCs are in the past, or are they our future? Are MOOCs for the rich, or are they following the cell phone experience - where a new technology that was at first for the wealthy, is now a lifeline for the poor and homeless? The book highlights the MOOC progress per region and per subject area and provides the reader with links to further information on their key areas of interest. 5 Key "MOOC takeaways" from some of the countries and subject areas covered in the new book include: 1. India - In 2015, India strategically positioned itself as the year's MOOC Superpower thru its new government's aggressive support and national MOOCs directives 2. China - "World's Largest Education System (CHINA) is using MOOC Project to Train ALL its Teachers" (http: //www.emtv.com.pg/article.aspx?slug=China-to-Train-Teachers-through-MOCC-Project-to-Improve-Education-System-&) 3. Canada - In 2016, Canada, where one of the first MOOCs originated, has a timely window of opportunity in the global MOOCs market. Its highly regarded higher education institutions coupled with a new pro-education government, a lower currency ($1 US = $1.41 CAN), dual language (English & French), its popularity with International Students/China, its geographic proximity to the USA, and the USA's tightening of students/immigration visas - Provide Canada with the strategic opportunity to leverage MOOCs worldwide as an effective and powerful recruitment tool for international Higher Education and K-12 students; including US students and families. 4. Developing Countries - "Findings suggest People from developing countries more frequently reported benefits from taking MOOCs and, also in developing countries, people with lower socioeconomic status and with less education are more likely to report benefits" (https: //hbr.org/2015/09/whos-benefiting-from-moocs-and-why) 5. Corporate MOOCs/Corporate Training - "McKinsey is MOOCing Up. Firm not only made MOOCs appealing but also ensured the learning transferred IMMEDIATELY to clients" (http: //www.clomedia.com/articles/6593-mckinsey-is-moocing-on-up) About the 'MOOC it" Book Series: MOOCs or Massive Open Online Courses are usually the same courses offered by the World's leading Universities and professors on their campus, but now offered online, free and for anyone anywhere to enroll.
