Abstract

The emergence and development of MOOC has injected unprecedented vitality into the reform of higher education teaching, and has cast a revolutionary impact on education. This paper teases out the development process of China’s MOOC platforms by using the documentary method, and conducts a comparative analysis on platform presentation mode, platform resource design, classroom organization and interaction, performance assessment and course-completion certification method of five MOOC platforms in China, namely, “XuetangX”, “CNMOOC”, “Chinese University MOOC”, “Zhihuishu” and “Fanya”. Research results suggest that MOOC platforms in China should be further optimized in four aspects: the optimization of interface, the standardization of course guidance resources, the diversification of course learning resources, and the richness of interactive functions of platforms, so as to meet the needs of learners at different levels.
