Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) in the Arab World are still in their infancy. Many Arab countries are now starting to launch their MOOC platforms; however, there are only a few who have actually implemented such systems. This paper will explore online learning, in particular the rise of MOOCs around the world and their impact on the Arab World. The purpose of this paper is to give a true picture of the development of the first MOOC platforms in the Arab World. It will analyse in detail the concept, definitions, background, and types of MOOCs (xMOOCs and cMOOCs), as well as the main MOOCs platform in the Western and Arab worlds, and a timeline of the development of MOOCs. It will then observe the status of MOOCs in the developed world, opportunities in the Middle East, and the influence of Western MOOCs on the Arab world, from many perspectives, e.g. educational, religious, cultural and social.

The Internet played an important role during the revolution in the Arab countries, and the issue of utilizing both traditional and new media is still being discussed with respect to many aspects. The information which is transmitted in authoritarian states is carefully selected, therefore the Internet has become an important medium on the territory of Arab countries. Thanks to this, the protesters could easily organize themselves, and inform the world about what was really going on in their countries. One could, of course, ask whether a revolution can be carried out with the sole use of the Internet - but the answer is no. The Internet is only a tool and a means in pursuing a defined goal, albeit a means of an extensive range and enormous power.

Internet odegrał ważną rolę podczas rewolucji w krajach arabskich, a sprawa wykorzystania tradycyjnych oraz nowych mediów jest nadal dyskutowana na wielu gruntach. Przekazywane informacje w systemach autorytarnych są starannie wyselekcjonowane, dlatego też Internet stał się ważnym medium na obszarze państw arabskich. Dzięki temu protestujący mogli swobodnie organizować się, informować i mówić światu o tym, co naprawdę dzieje się w ich krajach. Można oczywiście zadać pytanie, czy rewolucja może zostać przeprowadzona tylko za pomocą Internetu? Otóż nie - Internet jest jedynie narzędziem i środkiem w dążeniu do celu. Oczywiście o olbrzymim zasięgu i mocy.
