TCU-Globe project
• TCU implements TCU‐Globe for interconnected
major Thailand courseware repositories and
connecting to Globe network to increase the
“courseware FINDABILITY” and “Global‐Reach”
28
TCU-GLOBE Project: The GLOBE
• GLOBE (Global Learning Objects Brokered Exchange) is
a one‐stop‐shop for learning resource broker
organizations. Each of them manages and/or federates
one or more learning object repositories.
• GLOBE makes a suite of online services and tools
available to its members for the exchange of learning
resources, and it is established as a worldwide Open
Community.29
(Global Learning Object Brokered Exchange)
30
TCU-GLOBE Project: About the Project
•TCU establishes a “Common Infrastructure” for inter‐connecting major open courseware providers (universities, institutions) to provide one‐stop‐shop service to coursewares and learning resources.
• This “Common Infrastructure” enables access of the educational resources that belong to major open courseware providers.

Thailand Cyber University: e-Learning Professional Development Program
First MOOC in Thailand launched Nov, 200634
Lessons Learned• Thai Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) have a wide range of
education quality.
• Thai HEIs are willing to share courseware as well as learning resources with the management and support from OHEC.
• University students are the majority learners of open coursewares.
• Students as well as teacher need alternative courseware to supplement / complement their teaching and learning.
• Pilot Fully online course is possible and at least shows higher success rate than traditional distance education.
