Challenges
• Online assessment and proctoring are considered less valuable/trustworthy
• Little integration between open learning and existing mechanisms for recognition
• Tension between affordability and uncertainty about recognition of open learning
• Unbundling of learning, assessment and credentials• Little support for MOOC-learners on opportunities for
recognition
