Abstract

device and internet connection, regardless of age, gender, educational background, or
geographic location. MOOC has become a popular mechanism to disseminate new
knowledge and skills to a large number of learners. Thus, MOOC can be utilized in the
most important topic among females which is menstrual disorders. MOOCs not only invite
global learners to acquire new knowledge; but also they increase learners’ engagement

especially in nursing education.
