The usability research of learning resource design for MOOCs

Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) are growing substantially in numbers, and also in interests from the educational community. However, MOOCs' high dropout rate has drawn researchers' attention. And this phenomenon also reflects the effectiveness in terms of usability of MOOCs. Combining with the aim of improving MOOCs' usability, this paper explores MOOCs learning resources design theories, and proposes a comprehensive model and principles for MOOCs learning resources design, so as to enhance user experience.
