MOOCs are generally people outside an institution (open to the public), so something like the TEACH act is less likely to apply and they wouldn’t have access to licensed content for institutional users.

The rule was the result of a petition brought by clinic students Mark Patrick and Sarah O’Connor…..To help MOOC faculty and staff understand and apply the new rule, Peter Decherney and I have prepared a short FAQ.” http://ipclinic.org/2016/01/22/fair-use-moocs-and-the-digital-millennium-copyright-act-frequently-asked-questions/ The PDF is at the bottom of the page.
