This document discusses MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), which provide opportunities for learners to study various subjects from experts online. MOOCs cover pre-university, undergraduate, masters, and continuing professional development levels and are available in many categories. They offer flexibility and low or no cost, but lack real-world interaction and equipment. Completion rates can be low due to lack of motivation and oversight. Popular MOOC providers include Coursera, edX, Udacity, and FutureLearn.
