我们报告了一项针对大规模在线开放课程（MOOC）进行的研究，以探索和提高对MOOC学习设计和参与者动机和期望的理解和实践。Carpe Diem MOOC于2014年设计、开发和交付。通过调查和访谈对MOOC参与者的经历进行研究，并采用三角分析法进行分析。研究发现，完成MOOC课程的三个主要动机是：深化现有知识，在学习设计过程中获得技能，以及在实践中应用学习设计方法。我们描述了这一MOOC中参与者动机与期望之间的关系，并为MOOC的教学设计提出建议，以促进和实现参与者的参与和完成。
We report on a study conducted on a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) to explore and improve understanding and practice about MOOC learning design and participant motivations and expectations. The Carpe Diem MOOC was designed, developed and delivered in 2014. The MOOC participants' experiences were studied through surveys and interviews, and the analysis was triangulated. Three dominant motivations to complete the MOOC were found: to further existing knowledge, to acquire skills in the learning design process and to apply the learning design methodology in practice. We describe the relationship between participant motivations and expectations in this MOOC, which was undertaken mainly by participants who were themselves educators, and make recommendations for pedagogical design in MOOCs to promote and enable participant engagement and completion.
