Along the way, MIT and its community have been involved in the creation Sanjay Sarma of several celebrated educational efforts: the Physical Science Study Vice President for Open Learning Committee (PSSC), Logo, Scratch, Khan Academy, Quizlet, First Robotics and much, much more. MIT has also established several universities worldwide, including the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur and Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani in India, Instituto Tecnológico de Aeronáutica in Brazil, Sharif University of Technology in Iran, Singapore University of Technology and Design, Skolkovo Institute for Science and Technology in Russia, and Masdar Institute of Science and Technology in the United Arab Emirates. Here at Open Learning our work has evolved over the years to keep pace with the realities of the 21st century, many of which pose challenging questions for education today. A rapidly changing global economy demands new skills of its workforce. Conflict- and climate-driven global migration displaces more and more young learners, and strains regional education systems.

  • Academic Senate Task Force on Micro-Credentials Report
    ACADEMIC SENATE TASK FORCE ON MICRO-CREDENTIALS Report of Findings and Recommendations Chair Barbara Spackman, Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate Vice Chair Oliver O’Reilly, Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate Professor Andrew Barshay, Committee on Budget and Interdepartmental Relations Professor Cathryn Carson, DIVCO Elected Member Professor Neil Gilbert, Graduate Council Professor Jonah Levy, Undergraduate Council Professor Zachary Pardos, Committee on Courses of Instruction 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The broader context for the creation of this Task Force is the growing practice of offering, in online or in other formats, micro-credentials (variously called “certificates,” “badges,” MicroMasters©, or “nanodegrees”) to non-matriculated students. These instructional programs typically offer courses that are similar in content to those offered by Masters programs, but require the completion of fewer courses than under a traditional degree-granting program. UC Berkeley’s participation in such efforts to date has largely been associated with edX and University Extension (UNEX), and has not involved consultation with the Academic Senate. This report summarizes the current situation, and makes recommendations concerning governance and review processes; misleading terminology and representations; and financial considerations and exclusivity of UC Berkeley’s relation to edX. Our three main recommendations are as follows: 1) We recommend that a Special Committee of DIVCO on Online Education and ​ ​ Professional Certificates be created. 2) We recommend that UC Berkeley not adopt the term MicroBachelors©. ​ ​ 3) We recommend that UC Berkeley continue to monitor the financial health and ​ ​ strategy of edX, as well as its own goals and costs in maintaining the relationship, and review the relationship on an annual basis.

  • Moocs Revisited: Still Transformative Or Passing Fad?
    MOOCS REVISITED: STILL TRANSFORMATIVE OR PASSING FAD? Joseph Rene Corbeil The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, USA [email protected] Badrul H. Khan McWeadon Education, USA [email protected] Maria Elena Corbeil The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, USA Received: 27 November 2018 Accepted: 8 January 2019 Published: 30 January 2019 ABSTRACT Although Massive Open Online Courses have been in the media limelight for a relatively short time, their roots date back to the Open Access movement of the early 1990s as access to the World Wide Web was increasing and online publishing was coming of age. Once heralded the great disruptors of higher education, the hype surrounding MOOCs has fluctuated through multiple upsurges and slumps over the past 5 years (Corbeil & Corbeil, 2015). Are MOOCs the great disruptors of higher education? Are they a passing fad? What is the status of MOOCs today? Where will they be 5-10 years from now? This paper will attempt to answer these questions by providing a brief history of the MOOC phenomenon from its early beginnings, through its quick ascension, into a period of experimentation and soul-searching, concluding with a look at today's MOOCs and where they are heading in the next five to ten years. Keywords: Massive Open Online Courses, online education, micro-masters and bachelors, nano- degrees Introduction: The Rise of the MOOCs The first course on record to use the ‘MOOC’ designation was Steven Downs and George Siemens’s Connectivism and Connective Knowledge/2008 (CCK8) (Marques & McGuire, 2013). Not knowing what to expect, the course was open to anyone interested in taking it.

  • A Study of the MIT Supply Chain Management Micromasters
    Evaluating Access, Quality, and Inverted Admissions in MOOC-Based Blended Degree Pathways: A Study of the MIT Supply Chain Management MicroMasters Joshua Littenberg-Tobias and Justin Reich Massachusetts Institute of Technology 600 Technology Square 2nd Floor Cambridge MA 02130 Contact Information: Joshua Littenberg-Tobias (Corresponding Author) [email protected] 516-330-6234 Justin Reich [email protected] 978-831-3046 This is a pre-print of an article currently under review. Abstract Many higher education institutions have begun offering opportunities to earn credit for in-person courses through massive open online courses (MOOCs). This mixed-methods study examines the experiences of students participating in one of the first iterations of this trend: a blended professional master's degree program that admitted students based on performance in MOOC- based online courses. We found that the blended master's program attracted a cohort of highly educated mid-career professionals from developed countries who were looking for more flexible alternatives to traditional graduate programs. Success in the online courses was correlated with higher levels of prior formal education and effective use of learning strategies. Students who enrolled in the blended graduate program reported being academically prepared for their coursework and had higher GPAs (3.86, p<0.01) than students in the residential program (3.75). The findings of this study suggest that the technological affordances of MOOC-based online and blended degrees will neither transform higher education nor solve its most stubborn equity challenges, but there may be particular niches where they provide a valuable service to learners in particular programs and contexts.

  • Learning Innovation in the Digital Age
    September 2017 Learning innovation in the digital age As the workplace changes, so must education and training. Exciting experiments are under way—but are they enough? As technology transforms the workplace, the need for innovation in learning and development is urgent. In a series of recent discussions, members of the Consortium of Advanced Adult Learning & Development (CAALD)—a group of learning authorities whose members include researchers, corporate and nonprofit leaders, and McKinsey experts—recently met in Boston for the second year in a row. In a series of discussions, CAALD explored what is, and isn’t, being done to innovate in these fields. Many CAALD experts were skeptical about the ability of universities to respond rapidly enough. Some also suggested that as the workplace changes, the role of the college degree will shift as well—and that its value could even decline. Fortunately, innovation is taking place both at universities and businesses, including AT&T, edX, Microsoft, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Participants described the potential of these and other developments. And they agreed that while some companies are ready to explore new ways of developing talent, sorting through the options is complex and time consuming. The rapid growth of the gig economy creates additional challenges—and opportunities—for innovation efforts. Here we present edited excerpts of these experts’ reflections, which build on related CAALD discussions exploring artificial intelligence and the future of work.1 1 For more, see “Getting ready for the future of work,” McKinsey Quarterly, September 2017, McKinsey.com.
