Making MOOCs on a Budget is an online course designed to teach you how to develop a Massive Open Online Course at an affordable cost. It will run over a six-week period, during which time you will learn about:

• Planning a MOOC-building project
• Designing MOOCs based on pedagogical approaches that facilitate effective learning,
• Tools and techniques for creating videos and other learning materials,
• Sourcing relevant learning materials from the web for your MOOC,
• Developing assessments at large scale through the use of quizzes and peer assignments,
• Promoting your MOOC and retaining your learners.

Discussion forums on this course will remain open for a period of three months after the end of the course, as a source of additional support from tutors and fellow participants to anyone who wishes to build a MOOC.

Each week, a new module will be released which you can access through the 'Modules' link on the left of this page.
