Learning Management Systems MOOCs

LMS used by MOOC Institutions

 Have you ever wondered why MOOCs suddently appeared? Why educational institutions didn’t just use their learning management systems (LMS) and open specific courses to everyone? Was something wrong with their LMS that pushed them to get a MOOC system? What learning management system were they using? We looked at the MOOC’s 451 partner institutions and ...

Alexa vs World University rankings

 I was looking at Alexa’s Traffic Rank and how it allows you to compare websites. This got me thinking that evaluating a URL is a bit like evaluating an university or a college. You can compare its popularity, reference, credibility, incoming links, or measure its relative importance, influence, citations, etc. So I decided to compare ...

Historical compilation of 7 world universities rankings: huge drop for US, rise for French

 After reading an article from HESA where the author explains (referring to Times Higher Education’s annual Reputation Rankings) that “only the position of the top 6 or so is genuinely secure. Below about tenth position, everyone else is packed so closely together that changes in rank order are basically guaranteed”, we wanted to see how ...

The Best MOOCs

 If you had to select the best Massively Open Online Courses (MOOCs) platforms, how would you do it? You could compile the individual course ratings offered on each system (see coursetalk.org) or you could do what several people do when choosing a program; look at university rankings to give you an indication of the quality ...

9 World University rankings – Side by side – part 1

 See part 2 of this post The different world university rankings are somewhat controversial. Their methodology are often dissected to show flaws and universities often dislike them because of the influence they have come to wield. Not one ranking has been hailed as “the” definitive ranking and this is why we have so many. If ... 9 World University rankings – Side by side – part 1  Read More

What Market Saturation Looks Like in HigherEd

 Market saturation occurs when a product or service has become widely distributed within a given market, leaving little room for further expansion. Businesses face increasing difficulty in attracting new customers, leading to intensified competition and reduced profit margins.

They further say that, because of this interaction, one of their products should be more valuable to users if these users have already implemented another of their products in ...
