Call for Papers for a Special Issue on Massively Open Online Courses (MOOCs)
Guest Editors Kemi Jona, Northwestern University, USA (Editorial Board Member, Distance Education)
Som Naidu, Charles Sturt University, Australi (Executive Editor of Distance Education)
The speed at which MOOCs have become part of the zeitgeist of higher education has been phenomenal. As a proxy, searches for the term "MOOC" were virtually nil until the beginning of 2012 according to Google Trends. With any such rapid innovation, we find ourselves in a place where practice is leading theory. In this special issue, we seek to provide a forum to help begin to close this gap. Thus we seek a range of thoughtful contributions that will inform the many ongoing discussions, debates, and decisions regarding MOOCs taking place worldwide.
For more information on this call for papers please visit the website.
To discuss a potential paper or contribution, or to submit a paper please contact the Guest Editors: Kemi Jon: kj...@northwestern.edu
Som Naidu: sna...@csu.edu.au
The deadline for 1 – 2 page introductory manuscripts are due in to editors by 31st July 2013.
Full manuscripts are due to editors by 31st October 2013.
Kind regards, Zoe Miller Routledge Education
