Hello

I'm developing a project that aims to inform, enthuse and inspire people of all ages about historic graveyards and what they can learn from them. To do so I'm looking at creating an online resource that allows us to help learners navigate a site in a structured manner, presenting them with information and posing questions as they progress. The MOOC format seems to offer an interesting model - rather than say an 8 week course this would be structured around 8 gravestones that users need to progress through, considering different concepts, ideas and information. 

Having never considered creating a MOOC previously, I'm unsure of whether the platform's mechanics could be adapted in such a way. Before investing significant time in building content, I'd be interested in whether anyone has applied the MOOC format in a similar manner? I would welcome thoughts on alternative models as well (digital storytelling/storyboarding is another method I'm muling over too). 

Thanks!

Susan

The course builder is what I'm currently using for my MOOCs. I'm still filling it up with content tho
