MOOC learning a popular alternative for those whose life
situations make them unable to attend regular schools

2. Managing MOOC is relatively cheaper than running

educational institutions. By taking out the experiences of
universities – which are passed down to students in exorbitant
fees- MOOC addresses the high cost of education.

process of students. Through the use of data collected
through analytic, MOOC provides a means to improve
learning.

4. Since it focuses on connectedness as part of the

learning process, MOOC allows education to take place
on a global scale. Connecting learners and instructors all
over the world to one another to maximize education.
