THE ROMANIAN MOODLE MOOC DEVELOPMENT AND THE USERS' FEEDBACK

Summary/Abstract: An extremely useful advancement in education is represented by the Massive Open Online Courses Platforms. In the last few years a growing number of platforms offer free courses for people around the world. This courses are important for ensuring free access to education to all the people that want to develop their knowledge and competencies, as well as those who would not otherwise be able to have access to education. Most of the courses are thought in English, but other languages are also present: German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese and other. The wide development of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) at the international level constituted both an inspiration and a challenge to develop Romanian MOOCs. The first MOOC we developed in Romanian is a course on Moodle. The course is thought as being a self-paced course. The course contains six modules, referring to different aspects of online learning or Moodle objects. For each module we developed presentations containing information, theoretical aspects and examples. Video tutorials are included for modeling and demonstrating how to use different objects in Moodle. In order to take the learning to a more practical level, each student can request a course where he has the role of teacher - in this course the student can practice everything he learns in the Moodle MOOC.
