Summary:碩士 === 大葉大學 === 智慧財產權碩士在職學位學程 === 105 === These days the idea of student-centered learning guides the educational reform. Thus, the Massive Open Courses are blooming. In Taiwan, Ministry of Education has promoted them and known as “MO KE-SHIH” which sounds like “MOOCs”. MOOCs attempts to make teaching creative. It develops differentiated curriculum that originates in the Flipped classroom, provides various and interesting courses, and improves learning efficiency through learner autonomy. Moreover, the analytics of learning model with Big Data is helpful for teaching introspection. Yet there are a few problems among MOOCs, such as low completion rate, the risk of “fair use proposition”, ownership of copyright, and shortage of funds and manpower, which will effect job involvement of participants and sustainable operation. To understand the trends of MOOCs and copyright issues, the author did the paper reading to figure out the traditional classroom and the flipped classroom, distance education and MOOCs, and the way that Copyright Act deals with MOOCs issues. The author chose the teachers, the students, and the professional who master in intellectual property rights as the respondents. In addition, the author used the semi-structured interview to get the judge principles and amendments of Copyright Act, the MOOCs model of sustainable operation, and the differences of “fair use” between physical class and online class. The author listed the present development and future orientation as well. Based on the research, the author realized some of the responses of Copyright Act have existed to solve the obstacles of the inconvenience of getting authorization and the rising licensing fee, and some are on the way being revised or discussed, which the author has pointed out how inapplicable and inappropriate they are. Also, MOOCs has to cooperate with schools, the government, and the enterprises by setting up the standard online platform, strategic alliance, individualized instruction, and creative teaching materials. Furthermore, MOOCs has to focus on whether it facilitates the flow of the talent because sometimes intese market competition brings homogeneity. Last, but certainly not least, it’s crucial to raise people’s awareness of Copyright Act. Respecting others’ intellectual propery rights is the core to promote MOOCs successfully.
