ABSTRACT
Overview of papers on enhancement of European Higher Education as presented during the Online, Open and Flexible Higher Education Conference in Rome, October 2016

Finnish education system has been successful at PISA –research (The Programme for International Student Assessment) for the last sixteen years. Our MOOC will describe the success factors behind the Finnish Education. The Open University of University of Jyväskylä in Finland is developing a MOOC in cooperation with the Faculty of Education, Finnish Institute for Educational Research and with JAMK University of Applied Sciences. The Open University coordinates the development process, including the pedagogical solutions, and is in charge of the whole production process. The purpose of this paper is to present the process of creating MOOC. The aim of the MOOC is to offer a new possibility for anyone to study academic education. MOOC will be used at the continuing education, with the exchange students and as a part of international training programmes. We can also offer higher education for minorities through this MOOC. The Open University has a long experience in online education and training, but this MOOC, launched in October 2016, will be our first one.
