Types of Massive Open Online Course (MOOC)Chan nels xMOOC stands for eXtended MOOC. xMOOCs are based on traditional university course structures and make use of established teaching approaches and materials. xMOOCs Students will watch pre-recorded lectures, complete required readings, and participate in discussions as produced and managed by a course instructor or an instructional team from a higher education institution These are typically self-contained and rarely utilize content external to the main content delivery and learning platform.

Types of Massive Open Online Course (MOOC)Chan nels cMOOC stands for Connectivist MOOC. cMOOCs are based on the connectivist learning model that favors collaboration among learners as a form of active learning. cMOOCs Students in cMOOC work together to locate, evaluate, and contribute to the course content by uploading materials in the form of tweets, blog posts, wikis and others, to the course using the learning platform. A cMOOC instructor or instructional team facilitates learning by finalizing, aggregating, and assessing the students’ contributions to the course.

- 12. 1. Relax requirements – MOOC can be taken by anyone who is interested in the subject matter and able to access the course, regardless of age, background, or location. 2. Video format availability - Teaching in a modern video format (not just texts like those that you’d find in other e-learning courses). 3. Accessibility- learning content from top universities like Harvard, Stanford, etc. can be opened through online format. 4. Repetition- an MOOC will often run two or three times a year, ensuring that students would not miss their chance. 5. High quality- MOOCs are led by subject matter experts (SMEs) and supported by teaching assistants, so that students have access to first-rate educational resources. 6. Feasibility- an MOOC usually requires 1-2 hours of study a week for about 5 weeks, making learning doable even for busy students. 7. Self-paced- an MOOC enables students to work through the course materials and assessments at their own pace. 8. Online collaboration- learners across the globe work together on common goals without the need to meet each other in person. 1.

The Concept of 3D Environment • 3D or three dimensional in its literal sense refers to anything that has width, height, and depth. • The physical world is an example of a 3D environment • The concept of 3D environment is explored to mimic the physical world in media. Films are among the most common media offerings that incorporates 3D. 3D films make objects in their material appear solid to the audience through the illusion of perception. Earlier 3D motion pictures require audience to glasses with red and blue lenses.
