Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) July 15, 2014 -- Big data tools and analytics are increasingly contributing to the increasing popularity of MOOCs. Universities are turning to MOOC providers for large student data analyses. Examination outcomes and assignment grading are made easy with MOOCs because of the online nature, which is otherwise a slow and tedious procedure with traditional data gathering techniques.

Analysts forecast the Global Massive Open Online Courses market will grow at a CAGR of 56.61 percent over the period 2013-2018.
