Taking a course to see for my self

I have joined a course in my own topic HRM to learn more ?   Its really interesting to see how professional the movies (recorded lectures) are. Wonder if we ever could do something like that at my University since "the cost of developing high quality educational video that exploits the unique characteristics of the medium is still relatively high" (Bates, 2015).  And there is no budget for that yet. But there are plans for internationalization and maybe this is a way for internationalization to use other University's courses and let the students make the examination here. And then we have to give courses, MOOC s so that other Schools can do the same ?! It is obvious  that god  pedagogy is necessary - but what is god pedagogy in MOOC s ? Just a few short notes in this blog. There are to be many problems to solve, things to think about like :
Universal (students from all over the word) You have to really think about what you say. 
Movies - how and why?
Budget - ?
Reusable ?
Who shall be movie star - lecturing?
Copyright of pictures and music?

How might my lecturing be reused? mixed? misunderstood ?
 

The look of the teacher one of my colleges said - I'm to ugly :( , I have to go to the hairdresser,,
Since the appearance are important . There are codes of conduct that are not in writing,, so even a male lecturer would probably want to look  as a male lecturer.

Now or Never?

To much to do,
And still  I accept more things to do - like informing my colleges about MOOCs - next Friday. I better hurry to grasp it. Since this ONL161 course for me was something more than I thought it was , I did not  pass - but I will pass sooner or later - or is there a time limit ? or what?
Ok here are my previous thought about MOOCs - nothing!
I had no idea about wat MOOCs was.  Today I know more :

 

MOOCs stand for Massive Open Online Courses. These are free online courses from universities around the world
                                             (Class Central, 2016-11-02). 
 You can find them on class central .You can use MOOCs in your education and examine them at your home university - You can use parts of the courses for seminars and discussions.

I have made an Power point introduction to some colleges.  The problem right now is  how do I find out how to make place for a power point file in blogger, this blog, I do not know. That might be the biggest problem with the internet revolution, it is not obvious how to do  for everyone .But there is books to read for those who finds it, for exampel  teaching in digital age  .  Anyhow

You can do your own MOOCs, share the knowledge. Get reputation, by collaboration you can move beyond the typical institutional collaboration patterns (Santos et al. 2016).  And maybe paid for it, maybe beneficial both in monetary and in mastery.
