I'd like to see study communities built around topics and not specific courses. One of the best ways to stick with something is to have a groups of friends doing it as well (think of gym buddies). The problem with many MOOCs is that the community is only connected to the particular course (even a new version of the same course will have a separate forum), and if you fall behind a bit you end up being on your own (and then many people lose motivation and stop).
