Artificial Intelligence in MOOCs

In a climate of media interest in artificial intelligence (AI), growth of services and applications associated with this technology and intense debates on its use, the educational offer on this topic is in full bloom. In this sense, focusing attention on MOOCs (massive open online courses), an exponential growth of the educational offer on AI has been observed in recent years. This research is part of a broader investigation into the technical and pedagogical dimensions of AI MOOCs. The main objective of this study is to understand the predominant profile of AI MOOCs. Using a statistically representative sample of 292 MOOCs and based on a category system on AI content, a descriptive and factorial statistical analysis of the data is carried out. The analysis concludes that the three predominant MOOC profiles are: focused on AI coding, focused on AI learning and focused on AI educational value.

Abstract

In a climate of media interest in artificial intelligence (AI), growth of services and applications associated with this technology and intense debates on its use, the educational offer on this topic is in full bloom. In this sense, focusing attention on MOOCs (massive open online courses), an exponential growth of the educational offer on AI has been observed in recent years. This research is part of a broader investigation into the technical and pedagogical dimensions of AI MOOCs. The main objective of this study is to understand the predominant profile of AI MOOCs. Using a statistically representative sample of 292 MOOCs and based on a category system on AI content, a descriptive and factorial statistical analysis of the data is carried out. The analysis concludes that the three predominant MOOC profiles are: focused on AI coding, focused on AI learning and focused on AI educational value.
