    Just signed up! Thanks for sharing. I've been considering getting my Master's in Nutrition so this should help me figure out if that is something I really want to do.

    Can someone explain the format of taking this course? Do you just gain access to lectures and notes? Is it interactive? Thanks. I signed up, knowledge is power! :)


    Each week, you get access to the lectures and pdf of slides used. The lectures are divided into small chunks to allow for our increasingly short attention spans. In some courses, the lectures are actually less than 5 minutes and there are a bunch of them. Most, however, are in chunks of 10-15 minutes and you have 4-8 of them. Watch them when you have time. If you're going for the certificate of completion, there will be homework assignments and quizzes to complete on a deadline. Homework in this course is peer reviewed -- which also means you will have to review the work of some of your peers. Some courses have midterms and finals. Interactivity is through the course discussion forums, which are active in all of the courses. Many of these courses have tens of thousands of students from all over the world. Give it a try and see what you think.

    Can you just get access to the material without having to do the homework or review other people's homework?
