This reports on the results of a Massive Open Online Course called Dying2Learn. It was found that a MOOC was a viable strategy for stimulating community discussion about death and dying. The MOOC platform was well-utilised by people varying in age, with very active participation by people over the age of 60. It also helped participants feel more comfortable discussing death.
