摘要:AbstractMOOCs (massive open online courses) were reported as the buzzword of 2012. Inspired by FOMO syndrome, we investigate perceptions on MOOCs in University of Bucharest, Education Sciences faculty and students‘perceptions. It focuses on students‘motivation, course structure, types of assignments, sophistication of quantitative records on students‘participation and quality of pedagogy. Through focus group interviews, online questionnaires, observation, interviews and content analysis (on forums, blogs, Moodle etc.) we reflect on perceptions and expectations regarding MOOCs. Main question will be how to convert a fashionable trend into a realistic and inspirational transformative area within the higher education pedagogy?
