Overview: “MOOCs” are open online courses delivered via the internet that allow large numbers of learners to participate freely. Our university uses the “NCCU DKB” as its primary platform, enabling faculty to manage courses online, design quizzes and assignments, facilitate discussions, and monitor learner progress and performance in real time. Free from time and location constraints, both students and members of the public can join at any time.
Description: Both full-time and part-time faculty at our university may apply proactively or be nominated by their college to develop MOOCs. Upon approval, the CTLD assists with planning, recording, and publishing the course. If you wish to bring your teaching to a broader learning community, we welcome you to apply for a MOOC and let your knowledge shine on a larger stage!
Model Example: Prof. Tsui-fen Jiang from the Department of English won the Best MOOCs or Micro-credit Course Award at the 2025 Taiwan Open Education Excellence Award for her course “Classics of Western Literature.” Prof. Jiang’s course is a shining example of what a MOOC can be. If you’ve been wondering how to create an online course with both depth and appeal, her course is highly recommended—-it’s sure to spark plenty of inspiration. Who knows? The next nationally acclaimed course could be yours!
