MOOC catalog.
Provides university-level technical courses online with self-paced, interactive project-based learning, industry collaboration, mentorship, and certificates.
Editable online catalog aiming to archive every published book, offering user-contributed entries, metadata, digital lending, and free access to over one million Public Domain titles.
From Internet Archive. You can borrow books, and learn anything, (there are very interesting books, some are very old, some are recent). It's not as good as it used to be, as they had been sued (but it's a library!!!) and previously you could borrow a book for 14 days, now it's only for one hour!!!
CourseFinder helps you find the course that’s right for you. Whether you're looking for a job, changing careers or just looking for a course to develop your hobby, CourseFinder is the perfect place to start.
MOOC catalog. You can find MOOC and their URL, but you cannot have a profile or save anything on the site. Not my favorite catalog. I use also https://learn-anything.xyz (not related to CourseFinder, but it's not on this site)
We are an online school helping thousands of individuals all over the world develop their skills and progress in their career.
Tech and job-oriented. Marketing, programming, etc.. It was called "site du zéro" before, it was better in the previous version, but not international or really job-based. It's a bit like LinkedIn courses now. [For French speakers, if you have nostalgy for Site du Zéro, a part of the genuine team made "Zeste de savoir", totally in the spirit of the old Site du Zéro, learning from zero everything...]
Online courses from over 200 institutions in business, healthcare, tech, teaching, psychology, and more, featuring interactive lessons and self-paced learning.
Our goal is to guide you in your research, using simplicity. That is why everyone can express themselves about MOOC! Our platform thus has an active community which contributes, earns badges and shares its experience by reviewing the MOOC.
Lang-8 is a social networking site -- with a twist. Unlike Facebook or other SNS, the purpose of Lang-8 is learning a second language (or third, or fourth, ....) while making international friends.
It's an essential tool, as it allows you to write in a language you are learning, and to be corrected by native speakers! (Be careful, some of them are not good in grammar or spelling in their native language, but as you will get several corrections, and since you can check profiles, you will find good helpers -for free). It's essential, because there are no language learning apps that allow to progress in writing skills (except if you go in the Duolingo forums for a language community, and try to answer question in this language, you will make stunning progress). In the past, there had been Livemocha, but no alternative since Rosetta Stone killed it (because their app was not so good as Livemocha, so they were afraid and decided to buy and kill the site! Now I hate Rosetta Stone!) On Livemocha, you could read a text in a language, and be corrected by natives. But now, no site offers this feature anymore....
Offers courses for 12 languages, with expert-created lessons in grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, and speaking, plus community practice and placement tests.
Word by word, Drops helps you learn new vocabulary through fun, fast-paced games with simple mnemonic images in just 5 minutes a day.
Similar to Mondly. But no free lesson, instead you have 5 free minutes every day. And it's really really too short. So, for this reason, it's not such a good app.
Supports over 1000 language pairs, real-life conversation practice, and daily lessons with interactive exercises for practical vocabulary and fluency development.
Web & phone. Freemium. You can practice a few minutes everyday. There are some mistakes sometimes, and no grammar. But they have an amazin choice of languages. There is only one free lesson available every day.
Read any text, translate the words and phrases you don't know, and let Readlang create flashcards to help you learn.
Almost dead now. But still no replacement yet... The site is still functional, but as the owner joined Duolingo's team, it's almost abandoned. It's freemium. You can learn words or sentences in context (but the free version is too limited for sentences or groups of words), and make you personal dictionary from the text (It keeps your own definition, and the sentence where you saw the word!!! Very useful!!! Why no alternative for this??
This online learning platform offers over 250,000 courses in subjects like programming, data science, and design. Available in 75+ languages with lifetime access.
The courses are very expensive usually, but if you manage to buy them when they are on sale (% or the price, and sometimes free), it's ok. The courses are short, and it's more computer-centered that the generalist MOOC sites like EdX or Coursera.
Offers online courses from top institutions worldwide, integrating the latest technology to transform learning and allowing flexibility through open-enrollment courses.
A lot of topics, but it's freemium. If you use it for free, you have a limited time to complete the course, and no access to any certificate or exercises!
Online platform with self-paced courses from universities and organizations, featuring certificates, degree programs, free and paid options, and skill development.
Now that Edx only allow us to attend a MOOC for a limited time, it's becoming one of the best courses source. A lot of topics.
Discover free online classes (MOOCs) from top universities like Stanford, MIT, Harvard, etc
MOOC catalog (a large one). You can pin MOOC you are interested in (even if they are closed), make lists, write a review on them, or mark them as completed.
MOOC List is an aggregator (directory) of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) from different providers.
MOOC catalog. Their sorting features (languages, providers, duration, certificate, etc) is very nice, and should inspire other MOOC catalogs.
This website is created for students and learners. Our database contains 19 796 courses/programs from 30 providers.
It's a MOOC catalog, but it let you make educational path, and aggregate all the MOOC in a given path. For instance, if you want to study physics-chemistry, you will add chemistry MOOC, math MOOC, physics etc.. You can pin MOOC you want to attend, you attended, or for another reason. I use it also to save my MOOC certificates. It's a nice way to decide what kind of MOOC I could attend now, to complete a path, and make an appraisal of our learnings.
A million ways to learn, one place to discover, track and measure all of it. Get recognized for your skill, knowledge, and accomplishments with Degreed.
A bit like MyEducationPath, but not so good, because fewer features.
At CourseBuffet we personally examine and classify every course we list. This means you find courses faster and can compare them more easily. Spend your time learning not searching
MOOC catalog. Use it to find the topic you want (on any platforms), or witch courses are about to be launched.
Free, ad-supported online courses with self-paced learning, assessments, and no entry requirements, offering certificates and diplomas for successful completion.
The level of the course is not as high as other MOOC platform (including the level of the community) but it's still something that worth mentioning and browsing!
Have fun while learning a foreign language with Memrise. The more you enjoy learning, the more (and quicker) your skills will develop. This is why entertainment mixed with real-life, relevant content is at the very core of the Memrise language learning experience.
It's a tool to use with Duolingo to memorize vocabulary (using flashcards), or to learn an Asian alphabet. But it can also be useful to memorize anything, anatomy, chemical formula, etc...
Gamify language learning with Duolingo, offering over 30 languages for free. Practice vital skills with intelligent chatbots and community rewards.
Web & Phone (use web for the forum, and app for the every day training). One of the best way to learn many languages. Use it a few minutes a day, and read their forum (very important) to have grammar directions. Ask any questions about the languages, and you will always find some good guys with an amazing knowledge to answer them. You have to use it the proper way if you want to make some progress.
Khan Academy is not-for-profit with the goal of changing education for the better by providing a free world-class education to anyone anywhere.
A must. Do you regret to skip some courses in high school? This site is amazing to learn and have healthy foundation in any topic taught in schools. The only flaw is that the translation in other languages (for instance French) are made by a team that is totally lost (some courses remain partially translated for years now). There's a gamification system with points, encouraging to attend courses and finish exercises! Good learning community with a very interesting forum and advanced people who help in any topic.
Many MOOC from French universities, in English & French. Good level.
