Massive open online courses are distant learning courses which can be accessed over the internet by interested people. They cover a wide range of topics, can be accessed by an unlimited number of participants, and often provide certificates from recognized universities upon completion. Massive open online courses generally provide a variety of course material such as reading material, filmed lectures, and assignments. Some of them also offer interactive forums for students, lecturers, and other stakeholders. Distant learning previously referred to correspondence courses where the student interacted with the educational institution by post. However, this model witnessed a high attrition rate with only a few people completing the entire course. With the rising acceptance of the internet, distant learning became online-based, leading to the invention of massive open online courses which were introduced around 2006 and their name coined in 2008 by University of Prince Edward Island’s Dave Cormier. Massive open online courses gained popularity around 2012. The market comprises different types of organizations including massive open online course providers, educational universities, venture capitalists, and non-profit organizations (such as the National Science Foundation and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation). Venture capitalists active in the massive open online course market include Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and New Enterprise Associates. Several premier universities are also associated with these courses such as Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford University, and Harvard University.
