Listen Later

But nothing attracts the GoodPractice Podcast team like the end of a long-running fad, so we're kicking off 2019 by asking how learning designers can make sure their MOOCs are relevant and engaging.

Ross G and Owen are joined by Solera's Dr Hannah Gore, formerly of The Open University, to discuss.
