  • Abstract
    MOOC becomes a new learning mode in only two years. Many MOOC providers emerge and expand rapidly. Some is well known such as Coursera, Udacity and edX. Related information about them changes everyday. We do some research on the newest information about MOOC providers. We introduce few relatively new MOOC providers. At the same time we do some comparision and anylysis on some typical MOOC providers. We also summarize course data from them for anonymous user that may be used for further educational research. Based on those work we notice all MOOC providers have some common attributes, while they have found their own way to find users they would like to attract.
