Hi Rebekah, I do include mooc in my resume. It does indeed point towards a specific type of learning, so good to add.
The increased recognition of informal learning coupled with the rise of MOOCs made me think about whether participation in such courses could or should be listed on a CV or other employment profile. If you obtain a certificate of completion that could clearly be listed under education but in some cases there is no formal recognition despite a significant increase in knowledge.Any thoughts and experience with this issue?

What do you think?
Anyone out there who reviews scholarship and grant applications want to share how they might interpret such contributions?
Cheers
Rebecca

I am just finding this topic of MOOC as talk of the town. Some argue it is good while others say it is no match of traditional education.
I have earned 4 certificates from Coursera and pursuing for another bunch.
My argument is very simple. Principally, knowledge and hard work has a value.
No one can ignore that. So we should look at it as source of knowledge the opportunity will take care to find us.
Demand creates its own Supply.
Further, I am living in India and here education is business plus the overall state is pathetic. In this case, MOOC has proved to be big boon for the people like me. I don't have degree but I know the knowledge I am getting from this will put me far higher at least personally if not professionally.
