Festival of Learning MOOC Cafe
2016-05-26 | Marsden Library, Marsden Mechanics Hall, Peel Street, Marsden, West Yorkshire, HD7 6BW, United Kingdom
Ever heard of a MOOC? It standing for Massive Open Online Course (or it might be Massive Online Open Course …). If you enjoy learning new things – for FREE – then you need to get into MOOCs. They are offered by learning providers, including some of the world’s top Universities, from across the world, on topics far too numerous to list. But I bet you’ll find something to interest you.
You can find out more about MOOCs by coming along to Marsden Library’s MOOC Cafe, part of the Festival of Learning, this Thursday (26th May). MOOsey on down, why don’t you?
