Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) is receiving a great deal of interests in recent years as a new paradigm of blended learning, flipped classroom, distance education and lifelong learning. Despite its popularity worldwide and well-recognized benefits, the major setback of MOOC as revealed by scholars is its high dropout rates. Hence, it is crucial for more studies to be done on MOOCs which are still lacking in the context of Malaysia and a blended learning approach. This research presents the process of developing MOOC as a blended learning tool in a higher education based on the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation) model and its evaluation through a questionnaire adapted from Computer System Usability Questionnaire (CSUQ). Initially, past literatures were reviewed to identify successful MOOC criteria and a sample of 73 target users were also analysed to ensure that the MOOC to be developed can fulfil their needs and attract them to use. Findings showed that all 21 students who used the developed MOOC were satisfied with it showing high mean score for most of the questionnaire items. They expressed that the MOOC was a useful one stop centre for learning resources that capable in making their learning easier.
