ABSTRACT
Increasingly, education institutions are having to determine which platform they should use to make their online educational resources available. Should they connect to major platforms such as FutureLearn, Coursera or Edx, or should they use a platform within their own institution? What variables influence the decision and what options are available to choose from? SURF has inventoried a number of platforms and collected a range of user experiences from within research universities and universities of applied sciences in the Netherlands.
