摘要

摘要越来越多的研究致力于了解大规模开放在线课程（MOOC）如何影响电子学习社区。然而，对于马来西亚大学预科生如何看待慕课的使用，人们仍然知之甚少。本研究利用访谈数据探讨了大学前学生对慕课的看法、挑战和意图。结果显示，学生对慕课的总体看法是积极的，他们报告说，他们获得了额外的知识，获得了文凭，并从创建在线学习社区的机会中受益。然而，他们受到了语言能力和MOOC意识的挑战。这项研究的结果可能会为马来西亚的教育决策者在学生中推广慕课的使用提供一些实际意义。缩写：MOOC：大规模开放在线课程；cMOOC：连接主义者大规模开放在线课程；xMOOC：扩展的大规模开放在线课程；ahMOOC：自适应混合大规模开放在线课程；LMS：学习管理系统；MQA：马来西亚资格认证机构；STEM：科学、技术、工程和数学

An Investigation of Novice Pre-University Students’ Views towards MOOCs: The Case of Malaysia

ABSTRACT There has been a growing number of studies dedicated to understanding how Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) impact the e-learning community. Yet, little is still known about how novice pre-university students perceive the use of MOOCs in Malaysia. This study explored pre-university students’ perceptions of, challenges with, and intention towards MOOCs by using interview data. The results showed that students’ general perceptions of the MOOC were positive, reporting that they gained additional knowledge, marks towards their Diploma and benefiting from the opportunity to create an online learning community. However, they were challenged by their language competency and awareness of MOOCs. Outcomes from this study may offer some practical implications to educational decision-makers in Malaysia towards promoting the use of MOOCs among students. Abbreviations: MOOC: Massive Open Online Courses; cMOOC: Connectivist Massive Open Online Courses; xMOOC: eXtended Massive Open Online Courses; ahMOOC: adaptive hybrid Massive Open Online Courses; LMS: Learning Management System; MQA: Malaysian Qualifications Agency; STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics
