Abstract
Innovation is a competitive factor for any organisation. It makes it possible to stand out from the competitors. Entities use the digital age's means to carry out their missions. In this respect, higher education institutions are no exception. Indeed, the search for an innovative education system is always relevant. This paper aims at presenting a systematic literature review (SLR) focusing on massive open online courses (MOOCs), their achievements and the challenges they are facing. Using the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA) model, the results of the synthesis and analysis of 27 papers show there is a variety of content that MOOCs have dealt with. Most of the published studies focus on the design. Only connectivist MOOCs can be considered an educational innovation. Moreover, the designers of MOOCs do not take into account the individual needs of the different participants. Hence, several challenges remain to be overcome. The identified gaps could motivate further research.
期刊介绍：
IJLT is an international, refereed, scholarly journal providing an interdisciplinary forum for the presentation and discussion of important ideas, concepts, and exemplars that can deeply influence the role of learning technologies in learning and instruction. This unique and dynamic journal focuses on the epistemological thrust of learning vis-à-vis instruction and the technologies and tools that support the process. IJLT publishes papers related to theoretical foundations, design and implementation, and effectiveness and impact issues related to learning technologies. Topics covered include: -Communities of learners (practice), computer-mediated communication -[Social] constructivism, computer-supported collaborative learning -Cognitive tools, intelligent agents, semantic web -Distributed/intelligent learning/tutoring, multimedia/interactive learning environments -Virtual reality environments, human-computer interface issues -Learning objects for personalised learning, building learning communities -Technology-facilitated learning in complex domains -Learning technology systems'' evaluation, technological standardisation -Simulation-supported learning/instruction -Learning technology in education and commerce -Disciplinary-related inquiry, e.g., learning technologies for science inquiry -MOOCs, social media and cloud computing in e-learning -Data analytics and big data in education -E-learning evaluation and content; e-portfolios -Smart education; internet of things/technology adoption and diffusion for learning
