We consider a variant of the conventional MsFEM approach with enrichments based on Legendre polynomials, both in the bulk of mesh elements and on their interfaces. A convergence analysis of the approach is presented. Residue-type a posteriori error estimates are also established. Numerical experiments show a significant reduction in the error at a limited additional off-line cost. In particular, the approach developed here is less prone to resonance errors in the regime where the coarse mesh size H is of the order of the small scale ε of the oscillations.
