ABSTRACT
La población diversa de estudiantes está cambiando la forma en que las instituciones de educación superior realizan sus actividades académicas. Hoy los estudiantes tienen diferentes características, intereses y necesidades. Son estudiantes de una amplia gama de edades, conocimientos, habilidades y aspiraciones. El estilo de vida, de estudio y de trabajo de los estudiantes de educación superior demandan que los sistemas de educación superior cumplan con lo que los estudiantes requieren para tener éxito en la sociedad moderna. Por otro lado, las economías basadas en el conocimiento requieren individuos con habilidades del siglo XXI e instan a las universidades e instituciones de educación superior a brindar una educación adecuada a las características de los diversos estudiantes de hoy. El propósito de este trabajo es describir y analizar los MOOC y la educación basada en competencias (EBC) como tendencias actuales en la educación superior. Además, tiene la intención de describir sus antecedentes y cómo estas tendencias continuarán influyendo en el proceso de aprendizaje de los estudiantes. Además, el análisis se enfoca en cómo los MOOC y la EBC se ajustan a la necesidad de una educación centrada en el estudiante y cómo ambas tendencias contribuyen en sus formas únicas a la educación superior.

ABSTRACT
The diverse student population is changing the way higher education institutions conduct their academic activities. Today students have different characteristics, interests, and needs. They are students of a wide range of ages, knowledge, skills, and aspirations. The lifestyle, study, and work of higher education students demand that higher education systems meet what students require to succeed in modern society. On the other hand, knowledge-based economies require individuals with 21st century skills and urge universities and higher education institutions to provide an education appropriate to the characteristics of today's diverse students. The purpose of this paper is to describe and analyze MOOCs and Competency Based Education (CBE) as current trends in higher education. Additionally, it is intended to describe their background and how these trends will continue to influence the student learning process. In addition, the analysis focuses on how MOOCs and CBE adjust to the need for student-centered education and how both trends contribute in their unique ways to higher education.
