ABSTRACT

Furthermore, Chris Pegler (2013) comments:

There has so far been no fee for engagement in a MOOC and relatively relaxed limits on who can participate. Registered students based at institutions offering the MOOC are likely to be significantly outnumbered by open learners who have no affiliation with it. For example in late 2011, an MOOC on artificial intelligence taught by Stanford professor Sebastian Thrun was capped at 160,000 enrolments from 190 countries, while only 200 Stanford students enrolled on campus.
