Being a big Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) and Coursera fan already for quite some time, I stumbled upon another internet platform that promises to bring video education to you just today: SlideRule. It searches several online course providers and “helps you discover the world’s best online courses in every subject”. In extension, there also is iversity, which is not yet searched by SlideRule. Have fun studying!
