Abstract
A massive open online course (MOOC) is an online course aiming at large-scale participation and open access via the web. Currently there are three main MOOCs providers: i.e. Udacity, Coursera, and edX. This presentation compared these providers in terms of their technical features and business models. On the other hand, the author presented how Purdue NanoHUB-U designed and developed MOOCs.
