Obviously， male students are far more than female when choosing to join MOOCs. 45. 4% samples are18 to 24 years old， while 32. 5% are 25 to 34 years old. Comparatively， these people have more learning abilities，more learning needs， and sufficient interests and curiosity about novelty. The majority of these learners are full-timeprofessionals and university students. Almost half of them (47% ) are university students， including undergraduates(29. 3% )， postgraduates (10. 4% ) and doctoral students (7. 3% ). 70. 7% of these learners have bachelor爷s de-gree or below.Students think that the corresponding elective motivation contain “ demand to update and extend knowledge inthese fields”， “because of interests， curiosity or interest ”， “want to challenge him or herself”and “in order to expe-rience courses of Peking University”， and they hold respectively 92. 3% ， 88. 8% ， and 69. 3% and 58. 4% . In theaspect of instructional design， more than 80% students think teaching videos are quite helpful. Instructors have alsoemphasized the key and difficult parts of the course， and have prompted students to higher level thinking. Averagescores of each factor in factor analysis reveal that different groups of students have different opinions on some of the as-pects.Most students say that they have learned knowledge and skills they desire， and they wish to study the followingcourses. In addition， instructional objectives have been attained. Even so， students have also complained that the sup-port of peers and forums is weak.Their learning difficulties are maimly about “insufficient learning time”， “feeble subject backgrounds”， “ unfa-miliar learning methods and schedules”， etc. Students have gained a lot through studying in MOOCs， such as “expe-riencing instructional mode”， “ enhancing and consolidating disciplinary knowledge”， “ expanding subject horizonand abilities”， “heightening interests and confidence on independent study”， etc. They have a variety of suggestionsfor these courses， focusing on course management， instructional design( teaching videos)， evaluation of homework，on-course interaction and so on.
