ABSTRACT
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
internationally. The analysis is framed by Porter's Five Forces and outlines a framework
for use by institutional leaders and strategic planners exploring specific strategic and
operational responses relevant to their particular institutional, social, national, and
international contexts.
