MOOCs: Design, Use and Business Models

Acknowledgements

We, the authors, would like to express our warmest thanks to the staff at the Université numérique des sciences de la santé et du sport (UNF3S – Health & Sport Sciences Digital University): Perrine de Coetlogon, Albert-Claude Benhamou, François Kohler, Marcel Spector and the whole team, from whom the leading author of this book learned a great deal whilst he was President of the UNF3S. At UPMC, we have benefited greatly from the helpful and amicable comments made by Pierre Jarraud, Christian Queinnec, Antoine Rauzy and Jean-Marc Labat, all of whom are specialists in distance education. Let us also mention that a French version of this book was published by Éditions Dunod in Paris, entitled: “Les MOOC, conception, usages et modèles économiques”.

To all those who have directly or indirectly helped us with their comments and feedback, we are very grateful. Nevertheless, we and we alone are responsible for the opinions expressed in this book.
