Background
Magnus Nohr has been teaching and researching at the Østfold University College since 1996.
He is the academic administrator and teaches within two MOOCs. The MOOCs (Introduction to ICT – ICTMOOC and Educational Use of ICT – ICTPEDMOOC) have, since they started in 2014, had the lowest dropout rate and highest number of ECTS production compared to other MOOC studies in Norway. Magnus is dyslectic and has used many of the technical solutions that he presents to succeed as a student and teacher. He is a popular teacher on Youtube and his Norwegian videos about teaching with ICT have several hundred thousand views: https://www.youtube.com/magnusnohr.
