2013 SSP 35th Annual Meeting
Welcome to SSP 35th Annual Meeting / Plenary Session 01
All the buzz recently about Massive Open Online Courses has left many wondering whether they are here to stay and, if so, how they might affect higher education. Publishers wonder how their content can be used in such courses. Professors ponder how to best support students who may range from their own campus to the farthest reaches of the globe. Librarians seek ways to provide licensed content to affiliated students in the context of such online offerings. These new models offer both challenges and opportunities for service providers. Please join us for this roundtable discussion of the present and future prospects for MOOCs. Come prepared with questions for the publisher, the professor, the librarian, and the service provider.
