The document summarizes the life cycle of an open source MOOC platform called mooin that was launched in March 2015 on the Moodle platform. It started as a local project in 2014 with one MOOC on Moodle and grew to include interactive videos, embedded elements, gamification features, and became a research platform. Over time, it expanded to include additional services like a company website, e-learning, and became a framework for research in areas like blockchain, AI, and learning analytics. The open source nature of the platform allowed it to be developed and expanded by developers over time.
