The relatively standardizedcurriculum that the cadets receive through their core courses (see Figure 1) enables USMA todesign not only a comprehensive academic program, but one that is integrative anddevelopmental as well. Consequently, cadets who graduate from West Point leave with a set of common skillsand knowledge. One of the most important skills they learn is the ability to leverage aspreadsheet. The basic spreadsheet proficiency that cadets gain in their freshman and sophomoremathematics, chemistry, physics, and economics courses develop into more refined spreadsheetmodeling and analysis skills that they acquire in

This will not bea surprise to most of the established educational market holders, as most are tracking MOOCsclosely and as mentioned above many have placed heavy investments in their development. Thiswill insure they are key players in the MOOC generation of educators. As the cost of educationincreases and employers are forced to screen new employees more on experience, work ethic andpersonality matches, those involved will continue to see MOOCs taking more and more of theeducational market place, possibly finding their place as a disruptive technology.

The company is not under any obligation to hire the student, andis therefore able to evaluate these potential employees virtually risk-free [20]. Work ethic,technical competence and attitudes can be more easily assessed over a semester or summer ascompared to a one hour interview.

Asking questions about constructability,sustainability, and ethics will encourage students to participate in learning process beyondtraditional frameworks. Carefully-designed quizzes and class projects are typical assignments toreinforce the outcomes of this stage.
