Li, Shuang; Tang, Qi; Zhang, Yanxia – Canadian Journal of Learning and Technology, 2016
cMOOCs, which are based on connectivist learning theory, bring challenges for learners as well as opportunities for self-inquiry. Previous studies have shown that learners in cMOOCs may have difficulties learning, but these studies do not provide any in-depth, empirical explorations of student difficulties or support strategies. This paper…
