Haskell MOOC - Crowdsourcing the Curriculum

Dr Jeremy Singer, University of Glasgow

The University is expanding its portfolio of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), hosted on the FutureLearn platform. Wim and I are designing a course entitled 'Introduction to Functional Programming in Haskell'. It's going to be available to distance learners. It will also form the first part of our Functional Programming 4 course.

In this GPG meeting, we'll give some background about MOOCs. We'd be interested to hear your experiences of online learning. Then we will discuss the concepts we hope to cover in the new Haskell MOOC, as well as our strategy for course scalability. Please come along and help to shape this course!
