Possiblye the FCC will extend E-rate funding to poorer areas. For example, MOOCs are still weak on completion and learning, but evolving. Another example: phones are much more important than tablets for less affluent students, but CIOs see them as equally significant. Connectivity raises cost issues, too.

Udacity helped popularize the idea of offering college-level courses online to anyone for free, a format known as MOOCs (for Massive Open Online Courses). But this week a Udacity official called MOOCs “dead,” leading to questions about what that means for one of the company’s offerings (which still include free MOOCs).
