abstract |
Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) are making low-cost learning opportunities available
at a large scale to diverse groups of learners. Therefore, MOOCs need to be accessible
so that they can offer the flexibility of learning and benefits to all. To direct
efforts towards developing accessible MOOCs, it is important to understand the current
motivations of disabled learners. Analysis of data from existing MOOC surveys that
request disclosure of disability provides quantitative information such as the proportions
of disabled learners participating in MOOCs; their reasons for participating, and
the types of MOOCs they prefer. Interviews from selected participants for this research,
capture in-depth the experiences and motivations of disabled learners while participating
in them. This paper outlines the interests that disabled learners who have experience
participating in MOOCs have in studying Higher Education (HE) programmes, and the
possibilities MOOCs offer them as vehicles to complement or offer alternative paths
to their HE studies. |
