Enhancing a MOOC With Adaptive Learning -- Campus Technology
Adaptive Learning | Feature Enhancing a MOOC With Adaptive Learning By Linda L. When Ohio State University math professor Jim Fowler and his colleague Thomas Evans, a senior instructional designer at the school, decided to create a calculus MOOC, they envisioned a course with an adaptive learning engine that would give students lots of practice doing math problems that matched their skill level. Coursera's mechanism for delivering problem sets is designed to provide the same number of questions to every student. To give their Coursera course the adaptive flavor they were looking for, Fowler and Evans created an add-on, dubbed "MOOCulus." "We felt it was important that students have this sort of practice area," Evans said. MOOCulus is written in JavaScript and the open source Web application framework Ruby on Rails. How the Course Works The calculus course, which launched January 2013, is an interesting hybrid, residing partly on the Coursera MOOC platform and partly outside it.
