Universities offering MOOCs doubled in 2014 - Keith Button, Education Dive

In 2014, the number of massive open online courses offered rose to 2,400 and universities offering MOOCs rose to more than 400, or double that of 2013, EdSurge reported. Coursera offers the most MOOCs, twice as many as the No. 2 provider, edX, which has nearly 400 courses. But Coursera’s market share shrunk to one-third in 2014 from nearly half in 2013. The top three MOOC subjects were the same in 2014 as in 2013: humanities, computer science and programming, and business and management. http://www.educationdive.com/news/universities-offering-moocs-doubled-in-2014/347803/
