I am happy to announce that the paper “Customizable modalities for individualized learning: Examining patterns of engagement in dual-layer MOOCs” by Crosslin, M., Dellinger, J., Joksimović, S., Kovanović, V., & Gašević, D. was accepted for publication by the Online Learning Journal (former Journal of Asynchronous Learning Networks).

You can find the pre-print on the link below:

Customizable modalities for individualized learning

Abstract:
Dual-layer MOOCs are an educational framework designed to create customizable modality pathways through a learning experience. The basic premise is to design two framework choices through a course – one that is instructor guided and the other that is student-determined and open. Learners have the option to create their own customized pathway by choosing or combining both modalities as they see fit at any given time in the course. This mixed-methods study sought to understand the patterns that learners engaged in during a course designed with this pathway framework. The results of the quantitative examination of the course activity are presented, as well as the categories and themes that arose from the qualitative research. The results of the analysis indicates that learners value the ability to choose the pathway that they engage the course in. Additional research is needed to improve the technical and design aspects of the framework.
