<anonuser> Oh. Basically, they a bunch of videos 1-3 minutes. After each video
you have a round of questions. You move on after you've answered
the questions correctly. [20:58]
<anonuser> At the end of each section, you take a quiz which recaps the
material
<anonuser> That is graded and you don't get your answers until after deadline
<anonuser> The homework they give out builds on the lessons and in later
lessons might require some serious effort. [20:59]

<anonuser> I finished about 3/4 of before I stopped
<anonuser> They have forums setup like stackoverflow for the students to
interact. [21:00]
<anonuser> and they have an aggregated office hours thinger
<anonuser> where they take questions in a period of time, sort and answer a
few of them.
<anonuser> based on this feedback they'll sometimes revise or offer videos on
the concepts a majority of people had trouble with. [21:01]
<anonuser> I liked Udacity more than Coursera but they're both okay.
