It happens every four years. Iowa voters meet in churches, schools, even living rooms, to be part of the first-in-the-nation stop for U.S. presidential hopefuls. This initial test in the presidential selection process will be the focus of a new massive open online course (MOOC) at Iowa State University, the Iowa Presidential Caucuses.
The Iowa Presidential Caucuses MOOC is open to all free of charge. Self-paced sessions begin in September and continue up to the Iowa Caucuses in early 2016. You’ll learn the history of the Iowa Presidential Caucuses, the essential elements of a caucus, and the role of the news media, paid media and technology.
