kmooc01
MOOC(Massive Open Online Course)
is a web-based course that is set up for a predefined learning goal, and it enables thousands of learners to participate. MOOC offers new educational environments that enable for learners to make interactive learning such as discussion, quiz, Q & A between professors and learners and among learners as compared to a standard web-based course.
In addition, learners will share knowledges among different learners with different backgrounds, which will lead to a new learning experience beyond the fence of the university.
In October, 2015 K-MOOC
launched its course with 27 courses from 10 domestic leading universities such as Seoul National University and KAIST, and provided 140 courses in '16, and more than 500 courses up to ‘18 expanding the number of lectures every year

Based on the advanced ICT infrastructure environment and e-learning technology, Korea has already achieved the world's highest level of IT education in the world. In the future, we will do our best to become K-MOOC as a global luxury brand.
