Abstract
In the last few years, the platforms for online learning, such as MOOCs, are becoming more and more popular. Particularly, in fields like computer science, students very often choose this way, instead of official programs, to complete their formation. In this context, universities must adapt to changes in order to offer the kind of formation that is demanded nowadays. In this article we present CiDAEN, and online course in data science and cloud applications that is offered from the University of Castilla-La Mancha (Spain). We describe how it has been implemented in a public university through a non-official program. We also share our (successful) experience, describe the methodology, the tools, and the importance of communication channels in maintain the interest of students.
