Scientific publisher Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. is set to publish a new journal MOOCs FORUM, a publication dedicated exclusively to the development, design, and deployment of the game-changing Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).
Multidisciplinary in scope, the journal has a neutral bias. Its mandate is the critical evaluation of the MOOC components and modules that are essential in creating a global and sustainable system. The Journal will be published online, with open access options, and in print by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers.
The Editor-in-Chief of MOOCs FORUM is Nishikant (Nish) Sonwalkar, Sc.D. The journal's content includes components and modules, roundtable discussions, interviews, case studies, model proposals, and perspectives from the leading stakeholders in the expanding and dynamic MOOCs community. Strategic thinking and re-evaluation will include ensuring the integrity for both creation and use. Existing economic models will be presented, and new models will be proposed. A robust blog will be a critical component of the Forum.
