Introduction
E-learning, main features:
– Usually tailored to the student (instead of being characterized by the class) – The student has more control over topics (instead of subjects and rules being selected by the teacher)– Takes place when the student prefers (instead of being constrained by predefined timetables)– The teaching procedure occurs mainly by means of technology (instead of depending on the teacher’s will and competence)– Students act a proactive role (instead of playing a reactive role)

Introduction
Some challenges:– Motivation – Time management – Learning “how to learn” in a virtual environment – Assessments

Introduction
• Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs)
– Share some of the principles of ordinary courses– Are taught over the Web to a very large number of students– Usually have no fees– No specific prerequisites – No predefined expectations– No formal accreditation

Introduction
Some challenges: – Handling course delivery for thousands of students at the same time entails a revision of the usual tutor-assisted e-learning model– Need for automated tools able to balance the lack of human attention – Scalability problems

QUESTIONNAIRES AND RESPONSES
Professors: – 95 responses from 18 countries– almost all public universities or higher education organizations– MOOCs offered by very few respondents’ institutions (10)
• Alumni– 69 responses from 15 countries
• Industry representatives– 35 responses from 13 countries

Professors, alumni and industry representatives all largely agree that e-learning:
– is useful for both bachelor's and master's programs– is useful for PhD programs, although a little less markedly– should not be used as the only teaching modality (it should be combined with "traditional" learning)
Respondents were asked to rate, in a scale from 0 to 4, the benefit levels of some features of e-learning

DISCUSSIONSome Remarks…
15th Workshop on "Software Engineering Education and Reverse Engineering", 23-30 August 2015, Bohinj, Slovenia 29
The percentages of the three categories of respondents who agreed on the good qualities of e-learning are very similar
– in most cases > 75% (levels 3+4 together)
– the actual or potential advantages of e-learning are well acknowledged by both the academic world and its “users” (i.e. students and their prospective employers)
![Page 30: Betim ÇIÇO, (b.cico@seeu.edu.mk) South East European University (Republic of Macedonia) Marco PORTA,(marco.porta@unipv.it) University of Pavia (Italy)](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070414/5697c0151a28abf838cce194/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
DISCUSSIONSome Remarks…
15th Workshop on "Software Engineering Education and Reverse Engineering", 23-30 August 2015, Bohinj, Slovenia 30
Also the percentages of the three categories of respondents who agreed on the challenges of e-learning are similar, with two exceptions:
Potential low student completion rate: about 46% of alumni (levels 3+4) consider it a real problem, as opposed to about 37% of professors and 25% of industry representatives .
Need for technical and pedagogical training for students: about 46% of alumni and 48% of industry representatives consider it an actual issue, while only about 36% of professors think it is a problem.

DISCUSSIONSome Remarks…
15th Workshop on "Software Engineering Education and Reverse Engineering", 23-30 August 2015, Bohinj, Slovenia 31
Alumni are generally better disposed than professors and industry representatives towards MOOCs
– The fact that with MOOCs it is possible to access quality courses from top universities across the world is very appreciated by all three categories of respondents
– The fact that MOOCs provide only "certificates" to students rather than university credits is considered a problem by about 40% of industry representatives, as opposed to about 56% of professors and 52% of alumni

CONCLUSION Limitations of the Study
15th Workshop on "Software Engineering Education and Reverse Engineering", 23-30 August 2015, Bohinj, Slovenia 32
• Relatively low number of respondents for the three categories (95, 69 and 35, respectively)
• Bias due to the fact that respondents are not uniformly distributed among countries
• The study is more qualitative study than statistical…

CONCLUSION
• Nevertheless, we think that it can provide some basic insights for a future.
• More thorough (cross comparative) analysis of the perception of good and bad qualities of e-learning and MOOCs within the three groups.
