Nacho is the MOOC initiative coordinator of Universitat Politècnica de València, who is a partner of edx.org with more than 120 MOOCs and 4,2 million enrollments and a local instance of the Open edX platform for more local courses and first runs of the edX courses, which they have been using since 2014. With it, they have done several experiments, creating XBlocks and other developments that they have presented in several Open edX conferences. Nacho was appointed as one of the initial TOC community members, where he participated in the strategy-setting meetings held during the year, and collaborated with Xavier Antoviaque in the development of the election process for TOC community members. Nacho is also leading the initiative of several universities from Spain to expand the Open edX platform with 500,000 euros of European Union funding, a project that he presented to the community at the Lisboa Open edX conference. Following this line, Nacho is one of the founding members of the “Open edX for Campus use” working group, to keep the project aligned with the broader community and make the Open edX platform one of the best on-campus LMSs. Nacho is a core contributor, trying to bring the platform operator’s point of view to the developing community.
