The purpose of this study is to evaluate the awareness and readiness towards
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) among radiographers in Malaysia.
As part of healthcare providers, radiographers also acquire long-life
learning which can be relate to the purpose of MOOC. The data obtained
can be utilized to improve the current MOOC in Malaysia and also help
in creation of new MOOC specifically for Medical Imaging Programme in
UiTM. This study was a prospective study, involving radiographers who
are currently practices and work within the field. The questionnaire was
disseminated via online survey through social media (WhatsApp® and
Facebook®) using random sampling technique. Only 102 respondents from
total of 377 responded to the online survey. Based on the acquired result
from the survey, statistical analysis was done to evaluate the awareness
and readiness of radiographer in Malaysia and to compare the Malaysian
radiographers’ awareness and readiness with demographic variables,
background on mobile devices and their understanding towards blended
learning. The result showed that all respondents are ready but most (76.5%
from 102 respondents) are not aware about MOOC. Next, Kruskal-Wallis
One Way ANOVA analysis revealed that the all comparisons between the
demographic variables, understanding on blended learning and mobile
device background with MOOC readiness and MOOC awareness variables
provide p-value more than 0.05(p>0.05), indicating the null hypothesis
is retained, except for between MOOC awareness with understanding on
blended learning which is less than 0.05(p<0.05), thus indicating the null
hypothesis is rejected. Radiographers in Malaysia are ready but mostly
not aware about Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC). Demographic
variables, background with mobile devices and understanding on blended
learning proved to have no relation with the awareness and readiness of
radiographers in Malaysia, except for relation between understanding on
blended learning and awareness which proved to be significant.
