A Development Design and Production Systems of MOOCs for enhancing the potential of the workforce in the Eastern Economic Corridor

Abstract

The objectives of this research were: 1) to establish a system of design and production of MOOCs, 2) to test the design and production system of MOOCs, and 3) to evaluate and certify design and production system of MOOCs. There were 3 phases of research process. Phase 1 was building a system to design and produce MOOCs - the data resource was a group of 400 academic and a group of 15 experts and stakeholders, the research tools used were questionnaires of the system requirement, the in-depth interview, and the system draft assessment. Phase 2 was testing the design and production systems of MOOCs – the data resource included 15 academic and the research tools consisted of MOOCs design, the assessment of knowledge, and the satisfaction questionnaire of the use of MOOCs. Phase 3 was assessing and certificating the design and production systems of MOOCs - the data resource were 5 qualified individuals and the tools used were expert group seminar notes and MOOCs design and production certification assessments.

 The results of the research were as follows
1.The Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) manpower had a system requirement to design and production MOOCs in the overall at a high level.  ( = 3.96), (S.D.=.60).  MOOCs Course Design and Production System for Manpower in Eastern Economic Corridor Area had the components as follows; 1) principles and reasons, 2) objectives of the system, 3) principles and theories for system development, 4) context, 5) elements of the system -  input, process,  output, and  feedback. 2. For, testing of design and production system of MOOCs courses for manpower in the Eastern Economic Corridor, the level of knowledge and understanding among system users was at high level ( = 3.76), (S.D.=.59) and the satisfaction rate was also at high level ( = 3.63), (S.D.=.58). 3. For evaluation and certification of MOOCs for manpower in the Eastern Economic Corridor, all experts agreed on four main issues with a high level ( = 4.35), (S.D.=.41).
