Proposal Lesson plan for Teaching goes Massive :New skills needed

Overview -

This course is offered by University of Zurich with Prof Paul-Olivier Dehaye and his students. This lesson plan is created by Dilrukshi Gamage (www.sdgamage.weebly.com) a MOOC student from this class due to few reasons.

1. Course started with giving some ideas, but now it appears no more ideas facilitated

2. Forums are closed and we have no clue of what to do

3. Students who take this course or any of coursera for the first time will be wondering and might lose the context of learning.

4. This lesson plan will guide us to collaboratively find solution to be in synchronized and learn from the time we invest in this.

Introduction -

The course named Teaching goes massive : new skills needed. It is our responsibility to find out what are the skills we need when we are teaching to a massive class.. or any class. Prof.Paul mentioned some experiments which we can do and previous forums already started and gone very well until suddenly closed everything.

So let us drive this MOOC ,  learn to learn ourselves how to be organized and learn from each other. Anyone can suggest things but not like as forums it has to be much more effective. This document will contain how to participate and what can you do in contributing to expand your learning. Don’t worry this will not stop suddenly as we the students are in charge.

First step lets set some objectives so we can see did we achieve when we finish this course.
