Just popping in with some fun news. I'm going to try online courses for the first time this fall. I'm excited! I loved school (especially college). In addition to classes related to my primary studies (Creative Writing, English, Theatre), I loved taking arts-related electives that captured my interest -- Film History, Art History, Sketching, Modern Dance, etc.
There are some great resources for FREE online courses. I have heard very good things about Coursera and FutureLearn.
I've signed up for two free classes:
Laura Ingalls Wilder: Her Work and Writing Life - Missouri State University (begins September 22)
Modern and American Contemporary Poetry - University of Pennsylvania (begins September 6)
If you sign up for either of these courses, please let me know so we have a milkshake in the virtual malt shop and chat about the classes together.
Have you taken free online courses? Do you have any free online course sites that you recommend? I would love to hear from you in the comments, below.
