ABSTRACT
Massive open online courses (MOOCs) , which has caused a large scale of medical edu-cation in recent years, has led to an exploration boom in medical education. By the end of November 2014, on four large domestic and foreign MOOCs platform, a total of 178 medical related MOOCs were found, accounting for 12.2% of the total number of courses, among which public health MOOCs accounted for 44.9%. In terms of medical education, MOOCs are not only a powerful supplement of existing medical ed-ucation and can assist dissemination of medical knowledge, they can also promote pedagogy innovation and improve teaching quality to a certain extent. Moreover, the huge amounts of data collected by MOOCs can also be used to develop research of students' learning behavior. In addition, by recruiting study objects, the researchers have begun to use MOOCs supporting scientific research. As a novel educational development, MOOCs face many challenges while they bring opportuni-ties for medical education. However, active prac-tice and exploration will bring more powerful vitality for its development in the medical field.
