社群信息学视角下的MOOC研究

The Analysis of MOOC from the Perspective of the Community Informatics

崛起于2012年的大规模开放性网络课程(MOOC)已经成为互联网时代推动网络教育发展的先锋力量。教师、学生和计算机远程通讯技术是构成MOOC的三大元素,对MOOC的解析就是对这三大元素之间关系的梳理和阐释。作为专门研究信息通讯技术如何促进实体社区或虚拟社区发展的理论,社群信息学与MOOC在理论上有着高度的契合。笔者以社群信息学为理论切入点,将MOOC环境切分为3个空间,并逐一搭建模型进行阐释。

From 2012, MOOC has become the main force promoting the development of the online education. To study MOOC is to expound the relationship among the three elements, that is, instructors, learners and computer science. The community informatics, focusing on how to enhance the advancement of the geographical and virtual community through the application of telecommunication technique, has much in common with the MOOC in theory. From the perspective of the community informatics, the whole MOOC environment will be divided into three spaces, and each of them will be given a model and explored in detail.
