The SIRET Training Platform: Facing the Dropout
Phenomenon of MOOC Environments
Sergio Miranda, Giuseppina Rita Mangione, Francesco
Orciuoli, Vincenzo Loia and Saverio Salerno
During these processes, the exchanges and agencies will
give them instruction on how to access MOMAMOOC
and leave them to freely interact with the platform, using
all available functionalities and services.
The platform will track all activities related to the learning
experiences and performance in terms of acquired
competences. These details together with the information
collected at the beginning of the process are useful
to evaluate the real benefits of the proposed solution. The
results of this experimental phase will be analysed and
presented in future works.
