EMMA progress – Over 4000 people enrolled on EMMA MOOCs

The last 3 months have been a really busy period for the EMMA team. While many of the second round of MOOCs were still running, a new round of MOOCs launched in May. They included the very popular Open Wine University from University of Burgundy in France and the first ever tri-lingual MOOC on ePortfolios which was launched by Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) in May 2015 and which begins in June. The number of enrollments continues to increase with over 4000 people enrolled in EMMA MOOCs by the end of May. Work to streamline the production process is underway to make it easier for new MOOC providers to insert their MOOCs onto the EMMA platform while also using the translation and transcription service. Planning for the delivery of the first EMMA summer school is also coming to a head which is being organised as a co-delivery experience with novice MOOC designers working alongside experienced MOOC providers to create a number of new MOOCs for delivery in the second half of 2015.
