MoocLab: New Website at the Heart of Connecting People to Online Learning
MoocLab.club is a community site at the heart of connecting people to online learning via forums, free guides, information & independent reviews for e-Learning enthusiasts.
- (1888PressRelease) August 12, 2015 - Ipswich, UK - Announcing MoocLab, the new interactive online platform for e-learning enthusiasts that has already attracted over 6,000 monthly visitors from over 100 countries and hundreds of community members.
The site aims to provide a centralised resource for people to interact around online learning, obtain information and guidance as well as news and insights on MOOCs and e-learning.
Founded in September 2014, MoocLab is run and managed by CEO Carolyn McIntyre with the backing of IBIS Capital, a company that provides a range of asset management and investment banking services dedicated to the media sector.
The concept behind MoocLab came from Carolyn's observation that there was no e-learning "hub" where people could access information, get advice and interact with others about online learning all in one centralised place. "My vision for MoocLab is to provide people with a comprehensive resource that can guide and help them achieve their educational goals online," commented CEO Carolyn McIntyre.
MoocLab aims to make online learners' lives easier by pooling knowledge, advice and support.
With this in mind, MoocLab currently offers a number of community-led features serving the interest of Online Learning:
The MoocLab Community
The MoocLab Community is made up of a number of forums allowing members to interact over Online Learning via discussion threads and articles. Being a member of the Community means users can also comment on and discuss the various resources offered by MoocLab.
