Since 2013, the AVƵ has been producing "massive open online courses" (MOOCs). These are university-level online courses that are scripted and structured around content, learning activities, interactions and assessments. They are open to everybody, without access-restrictions based on age, profession or level of study.
This initiative aims to make courses from the best universities in the world available to everybody, with monitoring and assessment requirements as high as for regular students. Launched in 2011 by computer science professors at Stanford AVƵ, MOOCs now have several hundred million students worldwide. The universities involved in this process include some of the world's most prestigious institutions.
