Breaking the walls of a campus summer course for high school students with two MOOCs

Abstract

This paper presents a case study of integrating two external MOOCs in a face-to-face (f2f) summer course for high school students. The aim of the study is to explore the design challenges emerged from this blended learning ap-proach, the students’ learning outcomes and satisfaction with the course content as well as investigating the students’ behavior with the MOOCs once the f2f course ended. Results indicate that students learned through the course and were satisfied with the learning design. Moreover, some of them took advantage of the MOOCs once the campus course finished.
