Abstract

As a popular teaching method, the advantages and disadvantages of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) are analyzed in this paper.It is dedicated that MOOC could bring the reformation to higher education instead of taking the place of universities.The knowledge hierarchy and structure characteristics of the engineering courses are analyzed, therefore the possibility of applying MOOC in engineering education is deduced based on the prior experience of MOOC.A new thought of engineering education is provided by proposing a feasible plan for the implementation of MOOC in the engineering courses.
