providers, there is a need for frameworks to guide how to conductevaluation in the ‘massive’ environment. However, researchers have criticized traditionalevaluation metrics are not suitable for MOOC environments. The purpose of this paper is topresent an evaluation framework for large online graduate level engineering courses. Thisframework addresses this need with a comprehensive evaluation plan of practices and outcomesin MOOCs. Modified from Guskey’s (2000) professional development evaluation process, thisframework examines learners’ satisfaction and value alongside performance, as well aspedagogies to support learning, application of content, and integration of the course with long-term institutional goals. We present the five levels of

. The originaloffering was cohort-based and it employed a weekend format; meeting from Friday throughSunday. The cohort met three times a semester, twice in the summer semester, for a total of fivesemesters (Fall, Spring, Summer, Fall and Spring). After 22 months, all members of the initialcohort format graduated in the May 2000 graduation ceremony. Because of its non-traditionalapproach, the state’s authorization included the establishment of a different fee structure thannormal on-campus classes which resulted in a program cost that was higher than traditional on-campus equivalent programs.The Center for Professional Studies in Technology and Applied Research (ProSTAR) wasapproved by Purdue University under the College of Technology as an
