慕课背景下成人高等教育发展的新契机

A New Opportunity for the Development of Adult Higher Education under the Background of “MOOC”

自2012年起,MOOC这种大规模在线开放课程模式在全球迅速发展,尽管存在一些如退学率和文凭认证的问题,但因具有大规模优质资源、碎片化学习和免费在线等优势,由慕课引发的教育观念、教学方式、教育内容的改革与更新备受教育界的青睐。同时,目前我国成人高等教育仍存在教育体制滞后、工学矛盾突出等问题,面临改革瓶颈与转型需求,MOOC的出现为成人高等教育的发展提供了新的契机。MOOC与成人高等教育有机结合,由此推动网络学历教育的发展。

Since 2012, MOOC as a massive open online course mode has spread across the world. There are some problems such as highdropout rate and diploma certification, but it has still won wide favor due to such advantages as large-scale high-quality resources, frag-ment learning, and free and online learning mode, and to the reform and upgrading caused by its learning concept, mode, and content. Atthe same time, problems including stagnation of education system and conflict between working and learning still exist in adult higher ed-ucation in China. Faced with the bottleneck of reform and the requirement of transformation, the appearance of MOOC provides a new op-portunity for the development of adult higher education. The combination of MOOC with adult higher education promotes the developmentof online academic education.
