The article discusses transformation of the education system under the influence of MOOC. It provides information about the features of open online courses offered on the Russian national platform for open education (NPOE), and their place in the educational process of Russian universities. We show the structure of the MOOC “Concepts of Modern Natural Science” at NPOE and consider the features of using the MOOC in teaching natural sciences to humanities students of the Polytechnic University (in blended learning format as well as in completely online learning). The authors investigate the efficiency of the electronic format in teaching students a non-major discipline. We present and discuss the results of the statistical processing of data obtained when testing and surveying the online course students. The article shows the efficiency of applying the MOOC in the implementation of the university’s educational programs.
