What is a MOOC?

MOOC stands for Massive Open Online Course. MOOCs are courses delivered online and accessible to all. MOOCs typically comprise of video lessons, readings, assessments, and discussion forums.

As all lectures are pre-recorded, and available online, students can learn at their own pace, either on weekends, weekdays, mornings or night, as per their convenience. For example, certification courses run on Udemy or Coursera are MOOC’s.

About the Course

This course, while in no way close to an exhaustive look at the history of liberalism, often considered to be western in origin, seeks to look at liberalism from an Indian perspective. It deals with aspects of both personal and economic liberty and dwells on liberalism in Indian cinema, sports, and economy.

There are 5 separate modules, each with MCQ quizzes, followed by a final e-Assessment.

Learners will be eligible to receive a certificate once they complete the entire course and score at least 50/100 in the e-assessment.
