TiL ... I have zero prospect of getting to the end of this FutureLearn MOOC

Posted on 04:06 by Unknown
FutureLearn

Left some feedback on the site - which is very interesting as it allows you to see the feedback left by other people. This confirmed my feelings about the FutureLearn platform - it's barely a beta at present. I did get an email response to the comment I left.

And linking course units to articles behind commercial paywalls is ... perverse. I'm not convinced these guys get "MOOC".
