The MOOCs Are Rising

There is a human face, a voice that brings out a certain passion for the subject, and a mind that understands the subtle nuances of the content. The better the faculty, the higher the student participation. But as Allison Morris sums up in The Minds Behind MOOCs, an excellent infographic: MOOCs have certainly caught the eye of the academia, but they still need to prove their worth and credibility.
