question 4
what does the author state in support of the claim that moocs cannot mimic the personal interaction found in traditional university teaching? select two answers.
□ that the majority of students enrolled in moocs drop out before completing the class
□ that moocs dont have an attendance policy to allow students to take the course at a particular date and time
□ that use of assessments and live chats helps students reproduce a traditional environment
□ that college graduates are earning less in their first jobs than they would have before moocs
□ that the stimulation of both teacher and student in a classroom is superior to virtual learning

Explanation:

1. Analyze each option:

• Option 1: Student dropout rate in MOOCs is about completion, not personal interaction. Eliminate.
• Option 2: MOOCs lack a fixed attendance policy (no specific date/time for class), so they can't mimic the in - person scheduling - related interaction of traditional teaching. This supports the claim.
• Option 3: Says assessments and live chats help reproduce traditional environment, which is against the claim. Eliminate.
• Option 4: College graduates' earnings are unrelated to personal interaction in teaching. Eliminate.
• Option 5: States that classroom stimulation (teacher - student interaction) is better than virtual learning (MOOCs), supporting the claim that MOOCs can't mimic personal interaction.

Answer:

B. that MOOCs don't have an attendance policy to allow students to take the course at a particular date and time
E. that the stimulation of both teacher and student in a classroom is superior to virtual learning
