In my opinion, edx is the very best platform for distance courses.
I have completed two now-defunct differential equations courses via Boston University and MITx's Intro. to Economics. These were the toughest classes that I have taken online and - in my opinion - they are equal in rigor to courses that would be taken on each university's campus. I graduated from Michigan, so I think that I can say this with some degree of authority.
These courses do not normally translate into actual credit on a transcript. However, I think that a micromasters on the platform would be very much worthwhile.
