Of this group, 19 percent said they teach the same subject as the online course they were participating in. A report from Harvard and MIT has found that 32% of Massively Open Online Course (MOOC) users either are, or have been, a teacher. The study was conducted by the two universities in collaboration with the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). Among MOOC students, 67% were male and 71% from outside the US. The study examined some 2.4 million unique users of MITx and HarvardX over the course of four years. An average of 1,554 new participants enrolled each day and 245,000 graduation certificates were issued.
