But what are we reading? The Web has mutated from a small initial collection of individually crafted pages written in English. No one now knows how to characterize the Web, its contours, its contents. Uniting specialists in Web indexing, mathematical sampling, graph analysis, text and speech processing, as well as international organisations implicated in world language policies, DILINET will create the tools and methods concerning language use that will allow informed decision making in multiple sensitive areas. DILINET will create new methods of intelligent Web sampling, unbiased crawling, page cleaning, and language detection (both text and audio). International organisation partners will define language indicators from these sampling methods. Research partners will develop modelling techniques to characterize language use and web content, both text and video, providing quantification for the metrics. DILINET will also develop pro-active surveying of actual web use. Surveying partners will develop voluntary-use plug-ins to capture language usage in browsing situations and to vehicle short questionnaires to different populations. Through sampling and voluntary monitoring of web usage, DILINET will provide the first reliable measure of Web characteristics. Providing new measures of information on the Web, useful both for science and government policy making, and new search strategies, DILINET applications will also demonstrate practical uses of this new information: measuring diversity in EU government websites, producing country specific Web indexes for underrepresented citizens, teaching materials for language policy makers, and targeted user campaigns for business usage. DILINET will provide accurate sampling methods and trending tools directly exploitable for support decision making and situation awareness.

To do this, it adopts a mixed methods approach (Gray, 2013) by analysing two large-scale surveys (120,842 and 1,800 responses respectively) and interviewing 12 learners. This was possible because access was given to 76 presentations of 19 MOOCs produced by The Open University on the FutureLearn platform. The aim of this thesis was to answer two research questions.
