Towards on the MOOCs Knowledge Discovery Based on Concept Lattice*

This paper puts forward the methods on MOOCs knowledge organization and discovery, adopts the method of Formal Concept Analysis, uses concept lattice as the support tool, and selects the data from “Coursera” to cluster the courses and mine the inner knowledge association among courses, so as to discover the connotative knowledge correlation among MOOCs on the same topic and the structure characteristics among courses. Finally, based on the supergraph of the MOOCs concept lattice, the paper puts forward the visualization navigation method of the courses and provides flexible guiding principles for the learners whose knowledge structure is unusual in various fields when choosing the courses, so as to promote the development and improvement of the MOOCs websites by the knowledge organization and knowledge discovery technology.
