Many saw the rapid expansion of MOOCs as a higher education revolution that would help address two long-vexing problems: access for underserved students and cost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In theory, students saddled by rising debt and unable to tap into the best schools would be able to take free classes from rock star professors at elite schools via Udacity, edX, Coursera and other MOOC platforms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if 2012 was the \"Year of the MOOC,\" as \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/04/education/edlife/massive-open-online-courses-are-multiplying-at-a-rapid-pace.html?_r=0\">famously called it\u003c/a>, 2013 might be dubbed the year that online education fell back to earth. Faculty at several institutions rebelled against the rapid expansion of online learning — and the nation's largest MOOC providers are responding.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">\"It was like going up and scrawling your name on a graffiti wall. You know, there was no sense of community.\"\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, San Jose State University partnered with Udacity to offer several types of for-credit MOOC classes at low cost. The partnership was announced in January with lots of enthusiastic publicity, including a plug from California Gov. Jerry Brown, who said MOOC experiments are central to democratizing education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've got to invest in learning, in teaching, in education,\" he said. \"And we do that not by just the way we did it 100 years ago. We keep changing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But by all accounts, the San Jose experiment was a bust. Completion rates and grades were worse than for those who took traditional campus-style classes. And the students who did best weren't the underserved students San Jose most wanted to reach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn't really proving to be cheaper, either, says Peter Hadreas, the chairman of San Jose State's philosophy department. \"The people that do well in these kind of courses are people who are already studious. Or ... who are taking courses for their own enrichment after they've graduated,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"fc821d86b2b1598ae65cc6d1870872ca\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A year and a half ago ... people thought this was going to solve the problems of higher education because people would be educated for less money. That's not the way it's worked out.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, San Jose State is scaling back its relationship with Udacity, taking more direct control of the courses it offers through the company and rethinking its commitment to MOOCs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>'WE HAVE A LOUSY PRODUCT'\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other schools are hitting the pause button as well. A recent \u003ca href=\"http://www.gse.upenn.edu/pdf/ahead/perna_ruby_boruch_moocs_dec2013.pdf\">University of Pennsylvania study\u003c/a> confirmed a massive problem: MOOCs have painfully few active users. About half who registered for a class ever viewed a lecture, and completion rates \u003ca href=\"http://www.gse.upenn.edu/pressroom/press-releases/2013/12/penn-gse-study-shows-moocs-have-relatively-few-active-users-only-few-persisti\" target=\"_blank\">averaged just 4 percent\u003c/a> across all courses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sebastian Thrun, Udacity's co-founder and a prime mover in MOOCs, \u003ca href=\"http://www.fastcompany.com/3021473/udacity-sebastian-thrun-uphill-climb\">recently told Fast Company\u003c/a> magazine, \"We were on the front pages of newspapers and magazines, and at the same time, I was realizing, we don't educate people as others wished, or as I wished. We have a lousy product.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thrun says he doesn't regret that position. \"I think that's just honest, and I think we should have an honest discourse about what we do,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Online education that leaves almost everybody behind except for highly motivated students, to me, can't be a viable path to education.

This year she immersed herself in five MOOCs from two providers and completed three, including a course on global poverty. She had read the professor's book and was excited and upbeat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I thought I'd go in deeper and come out wanting to move to India and help her with one of her experiments,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, the 52-year-old education consultant says she hated being chained to the computer screen and found the entire MOOC experience mechanistic, dreary and ineffectual. \"I'm a very social person. There was nothing to grasp on to,\" she says. \"There were no people; there was no professor. In a sense you're just learning in this void. ... I would come away from my computer just kind of despondent and feeling really reduced somehow.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says the courses' online forums — the key support structure for many MOOCs — were isolating and largely absent of meaningful back-and-forth — or joy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was like going up and scrawling your name on a graffiti wall.

Many others praise the online courses as brilliant, time-saving and cost efficient. But providers are responding to criticisms like Wheeler's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enter MOOC 2.0. Udacity and other leading MOOC providers now realize that a more expansive, human-centered support structure is key to helping students retain information, stick with the course — and finish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We [added] human mentors,\" says Thrun. \"We have people almost 24-7 that help you when you get stuck. We also added a lot of projects that require human feedback and human grading.\"And that human element, surprise, surprise, makes a huge difference in the student experience and the learning outcomes,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2014, the company will put more emphasis on employee job training classes for corporations, including Google, Facebook and others. Classes will include an introduction to big data analysis and mobile app development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Udacity, MOOC pioneer Coursera is also changing.

Many saw the rapid expansion of MOOCs as a higher education revolution that would help address two long-vexing problems: access for underserved students and cost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In theory, students saddled by rising debt and unable to tap into the best schools would be able to take free classes from rock star professors at elite schools via Udacity, edX, Coursera and other MOOC platforms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if 2012 was the \"Year of the MOOC,\" as \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/04/education/edlife/massive-open-online-courses-are-multiplying-at-a-rapid-pace.html?_r=0\">famously called it\u003c/a>, 2013 might be dubbed the year that online education fell back to earth. Faculty at several institutions rebelled against the rapid expansion of online learning — and the nation's largest MOOC providers are responding.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">\"It was like going up and scrawling your name on a graffiti wall. You know, there was no sense of community.\"\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, San Jose State University partnered with Udacity to offer several types of for-credit MOOC classes at low cost.

And the students who did best weren't the underserved students San Jose most wanted to reach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn't really proving to be cheaper, either, says Peter Hadreas, the chairman of San Jose State's philosophy department. \"The people that do well in these kind of courses are people who are already studious.

We have a lousy product.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thrun says he doesn't regret that position. \"I think that's just honest, and I think we should have an honest discourse about what we do,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Online education that leaves almost everybody behind except for highly motivated students, to me, can't be a viable path to education. We look back at our early work and realize it wasn't quite as good as it should have been. We had so many moments for improvement.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That the former Stanford professor and inventor — whose \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2012/01/23/145645472/stanford-takes-online-schooling-to-the-next-academic-level\" target=\"_blank\">online artificial intelligence course\u003c/a> helped kick off the MOOC frenzy — was fundamentally rethinking its viability shook the higher education world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What was missing, many students complained, was a human connection beyond the streamed lecture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's what Tracy Wheeler found lacking. This year she immersed herself in five MOOCs from two providers and completed three, including a course on global poverty. She had read the professor's book and was excited and upbeat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I thought I'd go in deeper and come out wanting to move to India and help her with one of her experiments,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, the 52-year-old education consultant says she hated being chained to the computer screen and found the entire MOOC experience mechanistic, dreary and ineffectual. \"I'm a very social person. There was nothing to grasp on to,\" she says. \"There were no people; there was no professor. In a sense you're just learning in this void. ... I would come away from my computer just kind of despondent and feeling really reduced somehow.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says the courses' online forums — the key support structure for many MOOCs — were isolating and largely absent of meaningful back-and-forth — or joy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was like going up and scrawling your name on a graffiti wall.

Many others praise the online courses as brilliant, time-saving and cost efficient. But providers are responding to criticisms like Wheeler's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enter MOOC 2.0. Udacity and other leading MOOC providers now realize that a more expansive, human-centered support structure is key to helping students retain information, stick with the course — and finish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We [added] human mentors,\" says Thrun. \"We have people almost 24-7 that help you when you get stuck. We also added a lot of projects that require human feedback and human grading.\"And that human element, surprise, surprise, makes a huge difference in the student experience and the learning outcomes,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2014, the company will put more emphasis on employee job training classes for corporations, including Google, Facebook and others. Classes will include an introduction to big data analysis and mobile app development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Udacity, MOOC pioneer Coursera is also changing. The company is creating \"learning hubs\" at U.S. consulates around the world that will include a weekly in-person instructor to foster discussion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some critics believe the changes underway amount to a full-scale MOOC retreat and lay bare online education's deep flaws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Thrun says those critics simply don't get the nature of tech innovation: You closely evaluate failures, think forward, adjust — and use the word \"iterate.\" A lot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's certainly an iteration,\" Thrun says. \"And the truth is, look, this is Silicon Valley.

A more broadly interpreted definition of the idea of a “campus” could turn the whole world into a learning environment. A college experience rooted in online courses that take advantage of all the possibilities of program enrichment that exist within larger communities could benefit students in untold ways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opportunities to diversify course curricula are also ripe with possibilities. In many ways, the actual work of a college student will probably not change all that much: Students will certainly have to work at their computers, listen to lectures and read chapters, conduct research, write notes on material, and write papers and take exams. Regardless of what new technologies emerge, there will still be plenty of work to keep students busy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what will likely change is the experience of learning. Imagine, for example, an online art course taken by students from around the country. The professor could choose a theme, such as “Family Life as Depicted in 19\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> Century Paintings,” and students could visit their local art museums to find examples of the theme in real artworks. Students could post images of the paintings they find (with permission, of course), and share the works of local artists to the student body at large. The shared images would probably run the gamut of works by local artists to those done by the great masters, depending on the museum the student visits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Certainly there would be more diversity than one would find in a standard art history text; plus this would allow students to compare many different aspects of the work, such as regional themes. Such learning experiences may not only be more engaging than listening to the standard slideshow/lecture format of most art history courses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The average school day for a future college student may then be more than just consuming knowledge by sitting in front of a computer, which seems to be the most envisioned common scenario about the expansion of online higher education. As Friedersdorf pointed out in \u003cem>The Atlantic\u003c/em>, colleges in the future will likely use the flexibility of online learning to explore many different ways to expand their physical campuses across the country or even the world—and hopefully, their faculty will do that as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":null,"status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1343155620,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":13,"wordCount":774},"headData":{"title":"A Day in the Life of the Future (Online) College Student | KQED","description":"Thinkstock By Jill Rooney What does the future look like for online college students?

A college experience rooted in online courses that take advantage of all the possibilities of program enrichment that exist within larger communities could benefit students in untold ways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opportunities to diversify course curricula are also ripe with possibilities. In many ways, the actual work of a college student will probably not change all that much: Students will certainly have to work at their computers, listen to lectures and read chapters, conduct research, write notes on material, and write papers and take exams. Regardless of what new technologies emerge, there will still be plenty of work to keep students busy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what will likely change is the experience of learning. Imagine, for example, an online art course taken by students from around the country. The professor could choose a theme, such as “Family Life as Depicted in 19\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> Century Paintings,” and students could visit their local art museums to find examples of the theme in real artworks. Students could post images of the paintings they find (with permission, of course), and share the works of local artists to the student body at large. The shared images would probably run the gamut of works by local artists to those done by the great masters, depending on the museum the student visits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Certainly there would be more diversity than one would find in a standard art history text; plus this would allow students to compare many different aspects of the work, such as regional themes. Such learning experiences may not only be more engaging than listening to the standard slideshow/lecture format of most art history courses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The average school day for a future college student may then be more than just consuming knowledge by sitting in front of a computer, which seems to be the most envisioned common scenario about the expansion of online higher education. As Friedersdorf pointed out in \u003cem>The Atlantic\u003c/em>, colleges in the future will likely use the flexibility of online learning to explore many different ways to expand their physical campuses across the country or even the world—and hopefully, their faculty will do that as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/mindshift/22898/a-day-in-the-life-of-the-future-online-college-student","authors":["4354"],"categories":["mindshift_195"],"tags":["mindshift_852","mindshift_908","mindshift_654"],"featImg":"mindshift_22906","label":"mindshift"},"mindshift_22054":{"type":"posts","id":"mindshift_22054","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"mindshift","id":"22054","score":null,"sort":[1339526760000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"can-free-high-quality-education-get-you-a-job","title":"Can Free, High-Quality Education Get You A Job?","publishDate":1339526760,"format":"aside","headTitle":"MindShift | KQED News","labelTerm":{"site":"mindshift"},"content":"\u003cdiv id=\"attachment_22061\" class=\"module image aligncenter mceTemp mceIEcenter\" style=\"width: 608px\">\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/mkeefe/3123775954/sizes/z/in/photostream/\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-22061\" title=\"\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/wp-content/uploads/sites/23/2012/06/3123775954_a2a25b2eb2_z.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"608\" height=\"381\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2012/06/3123775954_a2a25b2eb2_z.jpg 608w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2012/06/3123775954_a2a25b2eb2_z-400x251.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2012/06/3123775954_a2a25b2eb2_z-320x201.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 608px) 100vw, 608px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"wp-media-credit\">Flickr:M.Keefe\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\u003ch5>By Katrina Schwartz\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp class=\"dropcap-serif\">The sudden growth of \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2012/05/guide-to-free-quality-higher-education/\">free, top-shelf online education\u003c/a> sites has the potential to democratize high-caliber education that's long been reserved for only those who could afford it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as these new sites begin to blaze a new path to the possibility of a level playing field, it's still unclear whether taking courses in subjects like artificial intelligence or game theory will eventually lead to employment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Are certificates of online course completion from venerable institutions viable substitutes for diplomas and degrees from the same brick-and-mortar four-year universities?

That experiment has spawned the growth of similar endeavors. Here's a guide to some of the newest free education sites and what they offer, with the big caveat that this will soon change, as more institutions come aboard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.coursera.org/\">COURSERA\u003c/a>.\u003c/strong>\u003c/strong> Coursera is an interactive online learning system that offers free courses from Princeton, Stanford, University of California, Berkeley, University of Michigan—Ann Arbor and University of Pennsylvania. Their courses span the range from humanities, to social science, computer science, business, biology, medicine and mathematics. Andrew Ng, one of the Stanford professors whose class drew an astounding 100,000 students, and his new business partner, Daphne Koller, announced that they received $16 million in investment capitol from two prominent Silicon Valley firms to launch the project. Students will have access to lectures, interactive elements like quiz questions interspersed throughout lectures to help students recall and retain information, and peer-grading for homework, essays and tests. They plan to use crowd-sourcing algorithms to help ensure accuracy in peer grading, a move that will also help professors manage such large-scale classes. What's more, Coursera’s partner institutions will use the online learning platform to enhance in-class teaching. Based on a \u003ca href=\"http://www2.ed.gov/rschstat/eval/tech/evidence-based-practices/finalreport.pdf\">Department of Education study\u003c/a> that shows online learning can be as effective as classroom learning, the participating universities will offer a mixture of interactive and static learning to explore the best way for students to retain the information.\u003cem>\u003c/em>\u003cem>\u003cstrong> CERTIFICATION\u003c/strong>: \u003c/em>As with the popular Stanford courses, students will not get academic credit from the participating institutions, but will receive a certificate of completion from the professor.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.mitx.mit.edu/\">\u003cstrong>MITx\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> --> \u003ca href=\"http://www.edxonline.org/\">edX\u003c/a>.

The two universities will use the MITx platform to bring in a wider array of classes to the site. What's key here is the software for the platform is open-source, so other universities can use it too. The more universities add content, the more compelling a choice edX becomes amidst the growing number of offerings.

That experiment has spawned the growth of similar endeavors.

Their courses span the range from humanities, to social science, computer science, business, biology, medicine and mathematics. Andrew Ng, one of the Stanford professors whose class drew an astounding 100,000 students, and his new business partner, Daphne Koller, announced that they received $16 million in investment capitol from two prominent Silicon Valley firms to launch the project. Students will have access to lectures, interactive elements like quiz questions interspersed throughout lectures to help students recall and retain information, and peer-grading for homework, essays and tests. They plan to use crowd-sourcing algorithms to help ensure accuracy in peer grading, a move that will also help professors manage such large-scale classes. What's more, Coursera’s partner institutions will use the online learning platform to enhance in-class teaching. Based on a \u003ca href=\"http://www2.ed.gov/rschstat/eval/tech/evidence-based-practices/finalreport.pdf\">Department of Education study\u003c/a> that shows online learning can be as effective as classroom learning, the participating universities will offer a mixture of interactive and static learning to explore the best way for students to retain the information.\u003cem>\u003c/em>\u003cem>\u003cstrong> CERTIFICATION\u003c/strong>: \u003c/em>As with the popular Stanford courses, students will not get academic credit from the participating institutions, but will receive a certificate of completion from the professor.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.mitx.mit.edu/\">\u003cstrong>MITx\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> --> \u003ca href=\"http://www.edxonline.org/\">edX\u003c/a>.

The two universities will use the MITx platform to bring in a wider array of classes to the site. What's key here is the software for the platform is open-source, so other universities can use it too. The more universities add content, the more compelling a choice edX becomes amidst the growing number of offerings.
