Results
Over 7,000 learners from 170 countries participated in the initial cour offering. More than a third of learners were from emerging economies, including ven percent from Africa, and another 13% from countries outside the United States who received individuals requiring
treatment for Ebola virus dia.
Conclusions
好句加赏析大全
Creating and producing the first English language MOOC on EVD in a short time period required effective collaboration and strong coordination between subject matter and cour development experts from Emory. Through the collaborative efforts, the development team was able to provide urgently needed training and educational materials while the epidemic of EVD continued to radiate through West Africa.

Background
Since the ont of the 2014 Ebola virus dia (EVD) epidemic, a plethora of related academic and field rearch has taken place. However, global access to comprehensive training on the history, clinical prentation and management, quelae, and public health implications of EVD were urgently needed as the outbreak evolved. The Global Outbreak Alert and Respon Network called for institutions to build capacity to respond to outbreaks. After veral patients were evacuated from West Africa and successfully treated in the Emory University Hospital's Serious Communicable Dias Unit (SCDU), Emory was particularly well-positioned to provide training on this topic.
In recent years, massive open online cours (MOOCs) have been
growing in popularity among the general population, though little is known about their utility in time-nsitive situations such as infectious dia outbreaks. A French language MOOC on EVD launched at the end of 2014 t the stage to test the u of MOOCs under the circumstances. Both cours utilized a public health approach in examining the dia including epidemiologic and social factors impacting population health. Our cour drew on the experience of treating EVD-infected patients in the Emory University hospital. Given the prence of EVD in both French- and E

nglish-speaking West Africa and the global predominance of English, there was an urgent need for English language training on the subject.
Courra—one MOOC platform—currently offers 1,858 cours to a global audience. The cours are considered continuing education and not typically offered for academic credit. Courra has 147 partners including universities, corporations, nonprofit organizations, and international agencies. Emory University and Courra entered a partnership in 2013; Emory University is among the academic institutions that provides MOOCs through Courra. The subject matter for MOOCs is at the discretion of each university although Courra provides a review before cours are launched. Here, we describe the development and evaluation of the first English language MOOC on EVD as the 2014–15 epidemic was ongoing.
Pedagogical objectives
The goal of the cour was for learners to understand the evolving EVD epidemic and its various aspects including dia prevention, management and treatment, respon to the epidemic, ethical considerations, and the post-EVD global health landscape.
Cour development and production
家乡韩红At the suggestion of the Emory University Provost, the cour, Ebola Virus Dia: An Evolving Epidemic, was designed by two faculty members who primary appointments are in the Hubert Department of Global Health at the Rollins School of Public Health (RSPH). The target audience was the general public, but it was expected that many learners with medical, nursing, or public health backgrounds would also utilize the cour.
Cour design took place from October 2014 to February 2015. Faculty instructors began by developing a rough cour outline. Next, they identified content experts, namely faculty across academic units who could rve as prenters on each topic. High-marquee speakers included a former President of the United States of America, the Director of the National Institutes of Allergy Immunology and Infectious Dias, the founder of Partners in Health, and an EVD survivor/infectious dia physician; two of the speakers filmed at remote locations. All speakers were recruited for participation in the cour via personal, professional,
and/or organizational networks.案例分析报告

ctional designer (ID), videographer, editor, and two production specialists. Each speaker developed their own t of instructional materials and identified open-access readings which were then reviewed by faculty instructors. Once finalized, faculty instructors shared content with the ID for technical review in consideration of the Courra format. The ID guided faculty in effective pedagogical practices for online content. Examples of such strategies included lecting instructional methodologies for a global audience, designing meaningful activities and learner asssments, and ensuring that the creation of materials aligned with cour objectives. A major facilitator to cour production was Emory University's Office of the Provost. Although scheduling multiple high-profile speakers was challenging, it was not a major barrier to production. The same standards of instructional design were ud as for nontime-nsitive cours. A promotional trailer for the cour was produced and distributed on the Courra platform for marketing purpos.
The cour launched in March 2015. Learners could participate in the cour either for free or at a minimal cost via the Signature Track.
