This study aims to investigate the learning styles dimension of students in MOOC learning and propose a MOOC development model that is adaptive to learning styles. A mixed-method approach was adopted in this study to investigate the learning styles dimension of students in MOOC learning based on Felder and Silverman's (1988) Learning Style Model. Samples for the quantitative and qualitative studies were 50 and 20 students, respectively. The interview consists of 14 questions, and 11 students were involved in the interview. The results from the survey analysis revealed that the highest dimension among the eight learning styles is visual learner 76% while the result from the interview session is also confirmed visual (24.24). In order to propose a MOOC development model that is adaptive to students learning styles, a literature study was conducted. The study revealed the preferred learning styles dimensions and patterns proposed suitable for an adaptive MOOC content development model.
