Abstract
The importance of student choice and diversity of opportunities within the undergraduate medical curriculum is clear. However, space for additional content is limited, requiring novel ways to provide opportunities for students. Massive open online courses (MOOCs) are a recent educational development education which have attracted much attention, both positive and negative. As medical educators involved in MOOC development, we investigated how MOOCs can be used to increase variety in the medical curriculum. We developed a 2nd year MBChB Student Selected Component (SSC) that uses an existing MOOC, and describe our evaluation of this blended learning experience.
