Yeah, I remember Dan Ariely's course on behavioral economics, and — my favorite — Yuval Harari's course on the human history from the early, pre-paid-certificate days of Coursera. That was fun!

Currently I find Udacity model better than Coursera: I can get a course and take it in my own time without having to stick to a schedule. Also the fact that I pay for what I consume. I personally dont like subscription model for these things you may use once or twice every yesr
