A crowd-sourced MOOC (Massive Open Online Course)

In plain words

A crowd-sourced MOOC is an online learning platform launched in 2012 that allows large numbers of people to take courses together. The platform enables users to create and share educational content collaboratively, making course development a community effort. It's designed for anyone interested in learning or teaching a wide range of subjects through an open, participatory model rather than traditional institutional instruction.

  Curated List of Online Learning2020 · ▲43

  Hi HN, The discussion pops up regularly about which MOOCs and courses to take so I figured I'd start a curated list of recommendations. It's by no means exhaustive (and it's just the ones I know) and is quite broad. If you had any suggestions, feel free to create a PR or Issue, or even respond to this post and I will add it. I'd love to be able to capture quality somehow, but not sure of the way to go about that just yet. https://github.com/tombasche/professional-development
