Larry Greenemeier reports The New York Times calls 2013“the year of the MOOC(网络开放课程). ”But lots of open online courses still fail to get high marks from most educators. In a recent survey of more than 2, 200 professors, only one in five thought that online courses could be as effective as classroom curricula(课程). Their biggest concern: limited interaction between teachers and students. The survey was done by Gallup and the website Inside Higher Ed. Respondents linked MOOC credibility to whether an online course was offered by an qualified school and to a student’s ability to receive credits. The doubt from the faculty of the schools isn’t surprising. New technologies often turn those well-prepared products and services into goods without little excitement, something no teacher wants. On the other hand, refusing to change, especially when it involves computers, tends to be a losing strategy in most fields. One of the important points in the data is that much MOOC criticism comes from faculty who’ve never taught an online course. Of the 30 percent of professors polled(被投票的)who had taught a MOOC, most thought that online courses can deliver roughly the same results as the classroom ones. 【文章大意】2013年被称为“网络开放课程之年”。很多人都在质疑网络开放课程的有效性和它的可信度。有人认为这种课程把一些精心准备的产品和服务变成了平淡无奇的商品, 这些都不是老师们想要的。关于调查数据的可信度也遭到了质疑。 1.
