Small Private Online Courses (SPOC)
The Bulacan State Univesity (BulSU) committed to pursue her mission has implemented online learning to deliver relevant quality and accessible education to 21st-century learners and will continue to deliver more strategies and techniques to provide a new technologically advanced learning environment. This environment will allow instructors to deliver lessons more efficiently and become more effective educators, as well as students to continue their study despite the pandemic's issues.
Such goal will be made possible through the implementation of Small Private Online Courses (SPOC). SPOC enhances students' learning experiences by using advanced instructional resources and educational concepts. The online SPOC teaching style is effective in increasing students' enthusiasm in learning and developing their comprehensive ability (Jia, 2021). Experts now believe that SPOCs have the greatest potential to be the most relevant and disruptive innovations to emerge from the Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) exploding popularity (Strijbosch, 2016).
The development and implementation of SPOC are considered as an initial step for the University to proceed to Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC). SPOC will also lead the foundation of BulSU Open University in the year 2024.
