MOOCs: What we have learned, emerging themes and what next? will take a critical look at how online and open access learning has evolved during the past year, with particular consideration of the development of MOOCs in both the US, India and Europe. This ‘report card’ will examine the ways MOOCs are being integrated into university degrees and their emergent impact on mainstream pedagogies as well as models of delivery. Data and analysis on MOOCs experimentation will be presented and discussed. The organisers have also just completed a literature review on the development of MOOCs for the UK Government’s Business Innovation and Skills department which will feature during the one-day conference.

The conference is aimed at senior managers and policy makers in higher education, as well as other stakeholders and innovators in both the public and private sectors.
