  • Abstract
    The MOOCs offers technologies which emerge as an alternative to support the blending of face-to-face pedagogies and virtual activities. However, a blended learning experience is influenced by several factors, such as: the student´s attitude to learn; a well-known learning script; and interactions and group dynamic. This article proposes MOOCs scenarios based on the experience of two collaborative approaches implemented by the authors. These experiences are gathered in three aspects: methodological; technological; and educational practice. In conclusion, this article highlights a lack of services related with social interaction, monitoring and intervention by the instructors; without such services, the MOOCs technologies hardly support blended learning experiences.
