One of the "o" in MOOC is "open", which many previous MOOCs no longer seem to be.
One of the more impressive resources on the coursera of old was stanford's CS103 course, which if it is still on there I can't find. In fact Stanford seem to have pulled out all their coursera courses.
Most providers in the MOOC space moved away from open learning, which is a shame.
