Abstract
MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) promote mass education through collaboration scenarios between participants. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the characteristics of MOOCs that can be incorporated into environments such as OpenCourseWare. We develop a study on how the concept of OCW evolves nowadays: focused on the distribution of open educational resources, towards a concept of collaborative open massive training (as with the MOOC), that not all current learning platforms provide. This new generation of social OCW will be called OCW-S.
