Huma Shoaib is a graduate student working jointly between Engineering Education and Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering at Purdue University. Her research focus is computational thinking and understanding computational as well as engineering identity development in undergraduate students to overcome issues related to women persistence in undergraduate engineering programs.
This report is a systematized literature review on articles relevant to student learning, participation, and engagement in engineering massive open online courses. Learning about student participation and engagement in MOOCs will help with increasing student retention in MOOCs. The review details the systematized search of relevant databases for journal publications related to student learning, participation, and engagement in engineering massive open online courses. 21 peer-reviewed journal articles were retrieved and shortlisted from three databases: Education Source, ERIC, and Scopus. The focus of these articles was massive open online course participants (students) and what are their experiences in terms of learning, participation, and engagement. Four emergent themes were found in the surveyed literature. The first theme was the identification of different learning groups in MOOC participants. The second theme was the identification of participation patterns in MOOC participants. The third theme identified a correlation between student engagement and other factors like student retention and grades in MOOCs. Finally, the fourth theme was the identification of a gap for improvement in engineering massive open online courses.
