Abstract
Technological promises to change education have been around for years. The latest incarnations of tech-as-game-changer are Massive Open Online Courses, or MOOCs. The adoption of this course format by prestigious universities worldwide has sparked discussion about the future of education, or at the minimum, the future of academia's role in it. Data shows that while a typical MOOC may attract thousands of participants, less than 10% will complete the course.
