However, theteam moved forward with this design change without verifying that it would have the intendedeffect for their user. The process exhibited in this excerpt allowed Team A to finalize theirdesign by the mid-point of the semester and proceed to developing a high-fidelity prototype. Atthe end of the semester, Team A felt that their final design was successful and met all their userrequirements, although they would have liked the opportunity to test the design with their user.4.2 Team B: Limited user interactionsTeam B viewed user

Through these discussionforums, both students and instructors can directly respond in the various discussion threads.Research has shown that discussion forums can promote a social learning environment whichleads to deeper learning and increased student engagement [2]. Despite these advantages, gettinglearners to participate in discussion forums remains a challenge [3], [4]. Different MOOCplatforms have attempted to use various strategies to promote social interaction, however it is notclear which strategies are effective [5], [6].Based on this problem, our research questions are: (a) How does learner participation indiscussion forums differ between MOOC platforms? and (b) How does the content

evaluation results, in order to determine a project’s merit. An evaluation approachacts as a guide for a given evaluation [2]. Evaluation is considered to be a transdisciplinary field[3]. However, evaluation approaches have developed distinct differences based on: (a)philosophical or ideological differences, such as those derived from a positivist versus aconstructivist paradigm; (b) methodology, such as experimental, case-based, or policy-driven;and (c) disciplinary boundaries, such as education or social services [4]. Thus, the evaluationapproach should align with the nature of the program, the purposes for the evaluation, thesensibilities of the program stakeholders and decision-makers, and the utility of the evaluationdata.

The goals of the implementation of Pattern andsubsequent research was to explore: (a) student study activities that correlated with success, (b)student study behavior change from exam-to-exam, and (c) whether the use of Pattern impactedstudy habits. Results indicated that simply studying longer does not correlate with
