Abstract
Chapter 25 of this book provided a comprehensive sense of what it was like designing the content of the Mindfulness for Well-being and Peak Performance (MWPP) course and reflections on key insights and lessons learned from delivering it. This chapter provides additional detail about what it is like to design, oversee, mentor and participate in the course. In this companion chapter to Chapter. 25, we present three different mindful MOOC perspectives. Mr. Adrian Devey is the Senior Advisor (Academic Programmes) at Monash and oversees all MOOCs offered by the university. Dr. Sherelle Connaughton is the most experienced mentor on MWPP (as well as our second mindfulness MOOC, Maintaining a Mindful Life). Sherelle also makes occasional cameos in the recording studio to film additional content for both courses. Ms Alexandra Nance is a Ph.D. student in conservation biology and completed MWPP in 2018, to help re-establish a formal mindfulness practice to help manage the pressures of postgraduate study.
