In this paper we will describe the design of a large-scale study undertaken to examine the use of MOOCs in fourteen campus-based courses, followed by two types of findings: First, we will share quantitative outcomes from students in hybrid sections, comparing students who took MOOCs with those who were taught in a traditional face-to-face manner; second, we will share qualitative findings on the opportunities and challenges presented by the use of MOOCs on campus. Finally, we will reflect on what would need to occur in order for these models to see widespread adoption in the future.yes10.24059/olj.v19i2.523https://olj.onlinelearningconsortium.org/index.php/olj/article/view/523https://olj.onlinelearningconsortium.org/index.php/olj/article/view/523523-2881-1-PB.pdfUnited States, North America
