  • Abstract
    Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) are growing substantially in numbers, and also in interests from the educational community. However, MOOCs´ high dropout rate has drawn researchers´ attention. And this phenomenon also reflects the effectiveness in terms of usability of MOOCs. Combining with the aim of improving MOOCs´ usability, this paper explores MOOCs learning resources design theories, and proposes a comprehensive model and principles for MOOCs learning resources design, so as to enhance user experience.
