- Review: edX is a MOOC (massive open online course) provider that offers its users the opportunity to engage in free or affordably priced university-level content. I have utilized this app in a learning environment both by introducing site content to my learners in f2f class settings and by taking courses for my own professional and personal development. edX spans a number of 21st century skills including creativity and innovation, critical thinking and problem-solving, and communication and collaboration through its promotion of accessible education to “everyone, everywhere;” the app also supports the exploration of identity across perspectives in an informal learning environment.
