This paper presents an analysis of the strategic and leadership issues presented by the range of massive open online courses (MOOCs) and associated activities happening

for use by institutional leaders and strategic planners exploring specific strategic and
operational responses relevant to their particular institutional, social, national, and
international contexts.
