It’s usually just a professor behind a lectern using a whiteboard or slides. Some degree of ingenuity has been shown in the platforms (interactive quizzes, specialized video controls, etc.) but the content itself hasn’t changed much. The result is that the average MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) completion rate is an appallingly low 15 percent, with courses at the higher end of the scale barely breaking 40 percent.įounders Jesse Jhaj and Kong Pham believe this is a result of a lack of innovation in the industry. However, they have by and large failed to take advantage of the medium by making learning more engaging and immersive. Online courses have helped widen access to quality education to anyone with an internet connection.
