Anyone who wants to have a closer look at the intricate and somewhat paradoxical nature of todays MOOCs experiment in higher education will greatly appreciate this timely work." --Paul Kim, Chief Technology Officer and Assistant Dean of the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University, USA "Drawing on posthumanist and new materialist approaches, Knox breaks with utopian MOOC narratives, challenging readers to consider not only what it means to educate the masses but also what it means to be a student and what it means to be an educational sitequestioning whether most MOOCs, despite the hype, have merely privileged the orthodoxy of established educational frameworks. Knox offers a thorough consideration of the technopedagogical systems that purport to serve a universal communityproviding an in-depth exploration of the evolution of educational philosophy and aspirations of MOOC providerselucidating long standing Western educational ideals and models as a way to better understand the future design and delivery of education to a diverse audience." --Karen J. Head, Ph.D., Director of The Communication Center and Assistant Professor in the School of Literature, Media, and Communication at The Georgia Institute of Technology, USA, and Editor of Southern Discourse in the Center: A Journal of Multiliteracy and Innovation "Jeremy Knox provides a refreshingly critical take on a high-profile area of educational innovation which has been generally under-theorised. He does not shy away from addressing the big questions surrounding massive open education, and in doing so he tackles with insight and clarity the shifting terrain of higher education itself." --Sin Bayne, Professor of Digital Education in the Moray House School of Education at the University of Edinburgh, UK
