Are you looking to do some self-directed learning? Consider a MOOC!

MOOCs are courses delivered online and accessible to all for free. MOOC stands for massive open online course:

• Massive because enrollments are unlimited and can run into hundreds of thousands.
• Open because anyone can enroll — that is, there is no admission process.
• Online because they are delivered via the internet.
• Course because their goal is to teach a specific subject.

MOOCs typically comprise pre-recorded video lessons, readings, assessments, and discussion forums. Join this online session to find out:

• What MOOCs are and how they are delivered.
• How MOOCs are typically structured.
• Who provides MOOCs and how to access them.
• What kinds of topics MOOCs cover.
• How to enroll in a MOOC.
• Where to find great MOOCs.

This session takes place on Zoom. You will need access to a computer, tablet or mobile device, headset and microphone.
