That said, I can at least report that Ullman is generally positive about MOOCs as they gave her a
little bit of hope
of achieving a more even distribution
of technological
knowledge, despite their flaws and prejudices (for instance, she was annoyed
by an overabundance
of Big Bang Theory jokes in a course she audited as she felt it may leave some feel like cultural outcasts while they try to learn something that is already foreign to them).
