OnlineDegree No Longer Proctored! (For now)
#18
Decided to try some of these courses since they are totally free and have to say ... not impressed. Don't get me wrong. The main lectures and some of the readings are terrific (of the classes I've looked at so far). But at least two of the science courses (Biology and Intro to Cryosphere) require watching multiple pseudoscience videos created by youtube conspiracy theorists (unless they have been removed since I complained). It's like someone just popped a term into the youtube search engine and pasted whatever video showed up without vetting it first. And it feels like whoever wrote the exercises and quizzes was drunk when they did it.

Go ahead and take them if you want the free credits, just keep in mind that anything in the course materials outside of the UC Davis lectures may or may not be reliable. And make sure you watch the expiration dates, because these courses don't deserve renewal without serious improvement.
