- Review: Coursera is a MOOC (massive open online course) provider that offers its users the opportunity of low-cost (formerly free) access to university-level content. I have utilized this app in a learning environment by enrolling in courses for my own professional development. Coursera stimulates initiative and self-direction as well as productivity and accountability by providing affordable self-development options in a wide range of content areas; the app also promotes learning and innovation skills across the 21st century skills framework by providing high-interest content that empowers users to think creatively, reason effectively, and solve problems.
