Although higher education institutions offer self-paced massive open online courses (MOOCs) on platforms like edX, little systematic effort has been made to examine their instructional design features. Therefore, to review self-paced MOOCs on edX and examine their instructional design features for those interested in designing and offering them is essential. Aiming at offering reliable data, a significative amount of MOOCs that represent engineering, computer science, communications, business and management should be randomly selected for analysis if a realistic view is sought.
