MY REFLECTIONS/INSIGHTS
1. How can MOOC help you in your future career as a professional teacher and as a lifelong
learner?
MOOC gives everyone a chance to learn. Its all about education for all. There are so many
courses to choose from. That is why the easy access to education gives us more opportunities
for learning. Through this, we can widen our knowledge and possibly phase out ignorance.
2. What did you learn from the way the providers use technology to teach in the MOOCs?
The providers use videos to teach MOOCs. There are also additional readings for further
knowledge. There are forums so that the students from all around the world may share their
interpretation and insights about the topic.
3. How will you prepare yourself for the MOOCs, as a learner, and as a teacher who may
someday teach a MOOC?
I would want to experience it for myself and explore as many MOOCs as I can to see where I
want to possibly teach. I would take as many MOOCs and degrees as I can to sharpen my
knowledge and be an expert of the field so that I may be able to share what I know correctly and
efficiently.
