Method:The secondary and primary data were collected from respondents all across the country as well as websites, journal articles. A detailed literature review has been undertaken for the same.
Result and Conclusion:The study concludes that course design, structure, Instructor Feedback, etc. are a few of the parameters which impact the learners’ motivation in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).
