Abstract

Technology has made its presence felt in each walk of life and has changed the pace of modernisation. Information and communication technology accelerated the world towards knowledge economy and higher education should be focused to achieve this. MOOCs Massive Open Online Courses have placed higher education in the public domain at a global scale and not only learners but teachers also get benefited to have their continuous professional development. Realising the need of the hour, India launched an indigenous MOOC platform with name‘SWAYAM’ in July 2017 and has just updated it in May 2019.This paper is part of a broad study to list the suggestions provided by SWAYAM MOOC instructors in different aspects to further improve these courses. It is a survey based self participatory study as its link was shared with 1120 SWAYAM instructors through e mails and 66 of them voluntarily participated. The suggestions indicated by them can be placed under three categories of technology, instruction and communication, to head towards the further refinement of quality and accessibility of this platform.
