726 participants – and growing? By copying and pasting the participants list into Excel and sorting, the user names of ocTEL participants, from AdamButt to Zohra Mahmood AliSurani, number 726 as of 15 April 2013. 

List:
http://octel.alt.ac.uk/course-discussions/participants-list/

A post from +David Jennings put the number at “over 300” on 12 March 2013, 
http://octel.alt.ac.uk/new-course-outline-and-confirmed-dates/
so the list has at least doubled in a month. Keep that up for a year and we’ll have 2220705 participants!

It is interesting how this number compares with the scale of some other MOOCs

+John Duhring in another forum ([1] or [2]) observed the community interested in this topic is actually rather small — today. I wonder if we are just at the start of the kind of transformation illustrated by the “Announcement of the Pope: 2005 vs 2013” images:

One of the features “missing” from Google Apps may be a blog post/bookmark aggregation functionality which reaches out across Twitter, WordPress, Tumblr, Delicious, Diigo, Mendeley Group (and more?) and collects all the material tagged for a course.

ocTEL has such a system, called the Course Reader, described in this video:
Customisation of the Responsive Theme for WordPress turning it into a Google Reader style RSS reader

available on github as “MOOC in a Box”:
