Engagement!8 months later
•! People enroll in a MOOC for many reasons.•! People complete MOOCs for just as many
different reasons•! Completion probably matters less than
engagement•!We can (and did) get better at completion
and engagement from C1 to C2•! And access and learning go on beyond the
course: every week enrollees return to the course
If you build it…

What Participants Said…This experience made me feel more confident in my teaching resources, eager to apply new methods and to discover the
landscape of teaching.���–Elena, Romania
I enjoyed very much the interviews with other teachers since they give their own vision of what has worked for them and
what they have seen worked in their students���
—Rosalinda, Mexico
Though I had already been familiarized with most of the information that course covered,
it was very motivating and inspiring.���—Katarína, Croatia
