N2 - By the year 2060, the elderly population will double its current size in comparison to the results presented in the last census, according to the Administration on Aging (AoA). By that time an important part of the elderly population will be involved in technology. Moreover, it should be taken into account that the technological needs of elderly people will differ from those of the rest of targets. However, elderly people may not be fully aware of their situation concerning their lifestyle (e.g., own well-being, rights, nutrition); therefore, e-Learning can be used to improve their knowledge and integration with peers. Hence, the Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) can work as online resources designed to help expanding the knowledge of elderly people by means of technological tools. Even though a complete method to build MOOCs for elderly people has been proposed previously, this paper details the analysis phase, which constitutes the first step in the method. This proposal will help MOOC developers during the elicitation of the requirements towards building effective MOOCs focused on elderly people. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of this proposal, a MOOC related to nutrition recommendations for elderly people will be presented
