Assessing a MOOC users experience in a virtual mobility project: preliminary results for quality enhancement

Abstract

Virtual Mobility (VM) stands for institutional ICT-supported activities that trigger or facilitate international collaborative experiences in the context of teaching and learning. Some research experiences report the need to enhance Virtual Mobility based on open education principles. Open education is understood as a mode of undertaking education using digital technologies, included OERs and MOOCs. The goal of the present paper is twofold: first, we describe the quality framework for OERs and MOOCs adopted in the Erasmus+ project Open Virtual Mobility for OER and MOOC; secondly, we present an application of the quality approach in a case study in which experience data from 11 MOOC learners were collected and analyzed to improve its quality.
