dc.description.abstract | The study is aimed to bring to the discussion the problem of providing access to education for refugees via MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) as a tool which may contribute to developing an individualized path to education and, therefore, a quicker adaptation to the environments of the hosting countries for refugees. With this purpose the educational potential of the MOOCs to meet refugees' learning needs is analyzed based on the responses from the university instructors on their usage of ICT tools in teaching, general attitude towards MOOCs and applicability of MOOCs to the refugees' situation. The methods of the study include literature review, observation, analysis of recent case studies, and semi-structured interview. Based on the research results and analysis of the current practices of MOOCs designed for the learning needs of the refugees in different countries, the paper outlines in brief the learning needs which may be targeted by MOOCs and perspectives of involving the university instructors from Turkey to the MOOCs practices. | en_US |
