I took Udacity's cs101 class as a (lazy) way to get introduced to python. While I felt like it was a very well done introduction to computer science, it wasn't a very effective way to learn a language as it made a deliberate effort to decouple python and cs (and rightfully so). I would suspect that this is also true of the other MOOCs listed here.
