摘要
"MOOC元年(2012)"开启后,MOOC在全球迅速升温。与此同时,哈佛大学、加州大学伯克利分校等全球顶尖学府也在尝试一种更加精致的课程类型——SPOC,让MOOC在大学校园落地生根。本文简要回顾了MOOC的成就与问题,解析了SPOC的理念及实践,指出SPOC在四个方面的优势:既推动了大学的对外品牌效应,也提升了校内的教学质量;成本较低且能用来创收,提供了MOOC的一种可持续发展模式;重新定义了教师的作用,创新了教学模式;赋予学生完整、深入的学习体验,提高了课程的完成率。
MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) has grown dramatically since "the Year of MOOC'. Simultaneously, top universities, such as Harvard and UC Berkeley, are trying out SPOC (Small Private Online Course), a more refined course that mixes MOOC with campus teaching. Based on both benefits and limitations of MOOC, this paper analyzes the concept and practices of SPOC. It concludes that SPOC has four advantages. Firstly, it promotes the university globally and improves the quality on campus. Secondly, it is carried out with lower cost and can be a sustainable way to generate revenue for universities. Thirdly, it changes the role of teachers, which leads to more effective learning outcomes. Finally, it enables learners to experience entire and deeper learning, raising the completion rate.
