Organization of a MOOC

After agreeing not to cheat in the MOOC course, E-Learning and Digital Cultures, I opened the link to the course content and found a well organized site.

First, there is a welcome to the course that outlines the resources and requirements.  The resources -- film, readings, ways to discuss -- are easy to access.  Also listed are the requirements for the course:

• Contribute to a discussion board for each weekly topic
• Blog responses to the topic, tagging the with #EDCMOOC
• Set up or join a room in Synchture to discuss the films in real time
• Create an image or other visual representation of your response to the topic and post it in social media
• Tweet my thoughts

As writing about the organization of a webpage is about as engaging as watching someone floss their teeth, I have included an image:

Listed on the left-hand side of the page is the course content for the first block of the course which lasts for two weeks.  We are supposed to examine utopias and dystopias, first from past perspectives and the following week from future perspectives.
