“…us, they can learn from each other and share. Relevance theory and the theory of free economics are the theoretical basis of the MOOC platform [2,3]. In recent years, the MOOC platform has developed rapidly, but the problems of the uneven quality of course resources and the redundancy of resources have led to high dropout rates and low completion rates.…”

This research is to investigate the impact of massive open online course (MOOC) learning platforms on teacher development, promote the development and innovation of online learning models under the “Double First-Rate,” and especially expand the application of the MOOC platforms combining language learning with professional development paths. The MOOC online learning platform has a problem of a high abandonment rate. This paper first proposes a MOOC learning recommendation algorithm based on the learning sequence and similarity distance analysis as well as evaluates its accuracy. Then, the reliability test and the MOOC learning recommendation algorithm are used to evaluate the quality evaluation system of English teaching in the MOOC utilizing the structural equation model. Finally, the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) are determined to analyze the impact of the MOOC regarding the English teaching platform on teachers' comprehensive development. The results show that the MOOC platform-based learning recommendation algorithm has higher recommendation accuracy and efficiency, improving the learning effect with the utilization of the MOOC. Also, it can effectively reduce the abandonment rate and has a positive effect of resolving the interaction problem pertinent to characteristic differences and sequences in the learning recommendation. The quality evaluation system of online English teaching in the MOOC has higher reliability and convergent validity, which shows better stability and consistency in all dimensions. If teachers can actively learn from the resources of the MOOC platform, then they continuously update teaching concepts, improve online teaching, give full play to their language advantages, accurately locate student needs, and develop unique courses. Therefore, it will promote the overall development of their careers and improve innovation.

“…Sebastian believed that the original intention of MOOC and library MOOC was to enable students around the world to enjoy high-quality educational resources. It advocated the borderless exchange of courses and reduced barriers to people’s access to information, which was consistent with the purpose of the library (Möller et al , 2017). Ubell (2017) explained the role of foreign libraries in MOOC construction.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study was to establish a massive online open course (MOOC)-based map of higher education knowledge and apply it to university libraries. It hoped to provide more targeted and personalized learning services for every learner. Design/methodology/approach In this study, MOOC and university library information services were outlined, the development status of MOOC at home and abroad and the development of university library information services were introduced, and the necessity and significance of MOOC in developing information services in university libraries were analyzed. What is more, the knowledge map of university libraries was explored. The four modules include the construction of data sets, the identification of related entities from plain text, the extraction of entity relationships and the practical application of knowledge maps. For the logical relationship of the course, a combination of knowledge base and machine learning was adopted. In the knowledge map application module, the knowledge map was visualized. Aiming at the generation of personalized learning scheme, a prior data set was constructed by means of the knowledge base. The original problem was considered as a multi-classification problem. K-nearest neighbor classifier divided all courses into four academic years to obtain all courses. According to the course stage, the personalized learning scheme of some majors in higher education was obtained. Findings The experiment showed that it was feasible to apply the higher education knowledge map based on MOOC to university libraries. In addition, it was effective to divide the course into four stages by classifier. In this way, the specific professional training program can be obtained, the information service of the university library can be improved, and the accuracy and richness of the entire learning program can be increased. Research limitations/implications Due to the limitations of conditions, time and other aspects, there were not many opportunities to visit the field library, which led to limited level and imperfect research. There were many proper nouns and professional terms in foreign references, but my English translation ability was limited. The relevant investigation on foreign studies may not be detailed and comprehensive enough, and the analysis and induction of influencing factors of university library information service may not be rigorous and concise enough. Practical implications As the base of university information dissemination, the university library is the source of knowledge. At the same time, it is also the temple of students’ independent learning and the media of mainstream culture and improving its own information service level is also in line with the trend of The Times. Under this background, this research studied the influence of MOOC on university library information service and focused on the challenges and opportunities faced by university library information service in the MOOC environment, so as to continuously improve its cultural serviceability and better serve teachers and students. Originality/value Since the birth of MOOC, they have exerted great influence and enlightenment on universities and relevant educational institutions within a few years. European and American universities take an active part in the construction of the MOOC platform and explore how to make better use of the library to build MOOC resources in practice. It is also a hot topic for university libraries to participate in the construction of MOOC information resources. Therefore, the study of this topic has both theoretical and practical significance.

Abstract-Compared to traditional university network learning, MOOC teaching emphasized "student-centered", "knowledge modularity" and "interaction and communication". In order to construct a perfect college English network teaching environment, based on the in-depth analysis of the characteristics of the MOOC teaching model, a multimedia and multi-resources college English learning environment was established. In this environment, students could make individualized learning on their own pace. The system integrated learning platforms such as online learning, interactive communication, online operation, curriculum publishing and news bulletin, which were in line with MOOC teaching ideas. The results showed that, based on the idea of MOOC teaching, the system effectively promoted students' learning desire to transform knowledge into active learning behavior under the support of learning environment and advanced learning tools. To sum up, the system effectively improves the effect of college English teaching on the Internet.Keywords-MOOC; English; network teaching; development and application IntroductionWith the continuous updating and development of network technology and information technology, online education is attracting more and more attention of teachers and educators. Online education can also be understood as distance education or online learning. Generally, it refers to a teaching model based on the network platform. In the information age of rapid development of science and technology, as a supplement to traditional education, online education occupies a growing proportion in people's lives. MOOC (English short for Massive Open Online Courses) has become one of the hotspots of teaching and learning in the world. The design of the MOOC teaching model is designed to achieve an online classroom for the public. Online learning is carried out through online classes, replacing some of the previous traditional face-to-face courses. MOOC is also the latest development of distance education. People do not have to study activities in the same time period and the same iJET
