Abstract

As increasingly popular of MOOC (Massive Open Online Course), it is now widely recognized as a powerful strength in the process of educational innovation, which remains its own chances and challenges. MOOC has a great impact on the traditional education, especially the higher education. Universities, colleges and teachers have taken measures to face the challenges by creating their own MOOCs. With an analysis of the existing successful MOOC, ten effective tips we’ve discovered as follows: (1) Set a Definite Teaching Goal; (2) Make a Detailed Design; (3) Contents First; (4) A Simple and Interesting Title; (5) To Create a Multi-sensory Experience; (6) Light Humor is needed; (7) The Law of “10 to 15 min”; (8) To Tell a Few Good Stories; (9) Your PPT: More Pictures and Charts instead of Words; (10) Just be Yourself. By following these effective skills, it’s more likely to create a more attractive and successful MOOC.
