Local MOOC Solution for Thight Budgets or Limited Internet Access

Even today, there are institutions that, due to technical problems, lack of workers with the appropriate skills or because they do not have a sufficient budget, do not have an internet connection in the classroom where technology-related subjects are taught. Through this article we propose a new hybrid teaching method that combines the Open Massive Online Course (MOOC) and face-to-face work of the students. First, we present the problems identified along our experience. Secondly, we define both, the classroom resources and the educational resources we have used. In a next step, we describe in detail the architecture of the system and the communications that compose the proposed learning hybrid system. We have assessed that the proposed solution is valid, but we are planning to deploy pilot tests to indicate the features and limitations which can be addressed when teachers use this proposal. These pilot tests are framed within STEM and robotics education. The content to assess the solution in a future is also included in this paper.
