Coursera: Grow your career

Thanks a lot for the lectures , reading books, links and videos all the kind of stuff that you brought to my brain. I need it and I got it all thanks to you. See next course. Thanks again for the certificate and everything you taught me.

Either make an app for Android TV, or at least add support for casting to Android devices through this iOS app. Otherwise, the app is excellent.

Good for free learning, and good for some specific paid courses and certificates

Love it!

Just learned the term mastery learning. It is studying a subject for as long as you need until you learn it. Imagine being allowed to advance in school based on successfully completing each course. I would complete high school but I would be held back for finger paint. Internet instruction facilitates such learning. And if you can’t get past the “finger painting “, you can drop it. No one needs to know.

I don’t know what it is with this recent update but there are constant bugs that make the iPad version of this app unusable. For example, videos won’t produce an image but the audio will be there. Another one being how it will attempt to pull up the next assignment while watching a lecture with no kind of input whatsoever. This update has made it extremely frustrating to complete coursework on-the-go and has forced me to have to wait to log into a computer.

I remember when Coursera had plenty of courses you could take for free, sure that was limited and you wouldn’t get credit but it was great. That option doesn’t exist anymore it appears. This is not a cheap subscription and I will not pay for a course or access to courses without some free trialing first. Additionally, an obvious feature is missing…why can’t I favorite/save a course for later. I would love to have a tab to look at my top picks!

Coursera itself is awesome — I’m able to learn a lot of stuff from its programs! The app, though, is limited in its experience as quizzes and specialized modules aren’t available through tablet or mobile devices (there’s also a constant error halting assignments from activating on the app) . Although I have access to a computer, it’s disappointing that I can’t fulfill the entire program on my main device (iPad), especially while traveling. However, the videos work great and the offline downloads are helpful.

Most recent version is super buggy on the iPad. It keeps pulling up a random quiz that I’ve already completed while I’m in the middle of video lectures. Basically unusable because I can only get through about 10 seconds of content at a time.
