Has anyone here taken any of the free online college courses offered thru MIT, Stanford, Coursera etc? I have an undergraduate degree in Environmental Engineering and spent my professional career in Software Engineering and general business/management. In the coming year I’m going to have a little more free personal time and I’m considering trying one of these courses and curious to hear anyone’s experience. I’ve done lots of continuous learning over the years- reading blogs and books, listening to talks, plus some formal professional training - but all of a sudden I’m yearning for a classroom and more structured curriculum. The only question I have is whether to do computer science (to satisfy my desire to know the difference between on the job learning and what is being taught) or humanities (because I missed out in college).

I haven’t taken them for credit but I’ve listened to hours upon hours of lectures. They are gifts to the world

Which platform did you use? Direct from the university or YouTube or coursera or something else? How do you decide what to listen to?
