The implementation of this activity aims to design and build educative tourism infrastructure using the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) as a means to increase the income potential of Pagelaran Village. Pagelaran Village is famous for its pottery crafts, which are rich in cultural values. However, the potential for tourism and related revenues has yet to be fully realized. Therefore, employing MOOC as a tool to provide an online learning experience for a package of pottery production training activities is expected to attract tourists and boost the income of the local community. The methods used in this implementation include field surveys, literature studies, and analysis of tourist needs and preferences. The approach adopted is the asset-based community development (ABCD) approach, which consists of five stages of activity including: 1) Discovery, 2) Dream, 3) Design, 4) Define, and 5) Destiny. The infrastructure built includes the development of the MOOC platform, offering learning materials related to history, manufacturing techniques, and the art of pottery. Additionally, practical learning facilities are also provided for tourists desiring to undertake direct courses without constraints by space and time. During initial testing, this MOOC garnered favorable responses from travelers who participated the course. The results of the implementation of this activity indicate that the use of MOOC as an educative tourism infrastructure can increase potential income in Pagelaran Village. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
