Online Learning through MOOCs

The Malaysian Government has taken the initiative to launch MOOCs, or Massive Open Online Courses for Public Universities. The MOOCs is being used by universities worldwide, but only in Malaysia that the implementation was started by the government.

The objectives of implementing MOOCs by the government are:

1. To transform learning and teaching method in the IPTA,

2.  To improve the quality and standard.

3. To support life long learning

4. To reach to the massive population

To get it started, four IPTA..., UPM, UKM, UiTM and UniMAS Sarawak will be implementing four compulsory courses. The courses are:

a. Islamic and Asian Civilization.
b. Ethic Relationship
c. Entrepreneurship
d. ICT competency.

We hope the project will be successful, unlike the previous projects such as the Smart School and School based Assessment.
