Popis: The Universidad Carlos III de Madrid has been offering several face-to-face remedial courses for new students to review or learn concepts and practical skills that they should know before starting their degree program. During 2012 and 2013, our University adopted MOOC-like technologies to support some of these courses so that a blended learning methodology could be applied in a particular educational context, i.e. by using SPOCs (Small Private Online Courses). This paper gathers a list of issues, challenges and solutions when implementing these SPOCs. Based on these challenges and issues, a design process is proposed for the implementation of SPOCs. In addition, an evaluation is presented of the different use of the offered courses based on indicators such as the number of videos accessed, number of exercises accessed, number of videos completed, number of exercises correctly solved or time spent on the platform. Work partially funded by the RESET project under grant no. TIN2014-53199-C3-1-R (funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness), the REMEDISS project under grant no. IPT-2012-0882-430000 (funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness) and the “eMadrid” project (funded by the Regional Government of Madrid) under grant no. S2013/ICE-2715. Carlos Delgado Kloos wishes to acknowledge support from Fundación CajaMadrid to visit Harvard University and MIT in the academic year 2012-13.
