MOOC Dropout: Stanford's Finance of Retirement and Pensions
I just withdrew from the Stanford Retirement and Pensions MOOC. I really didn't want to, but I wasn't getting a reasonable benefit for the effort I was expending. It's not the instructors fault. I guess I traditional lectures and a chalkboard work better for me.
Lessons Learned:
1. Six 10 minute videos convey less information than one continuous lecture of half the length.
2. Too many graphics are distracting, not helpful. I get it. You have a green screen. Now.stop.
3. Please post all of the videos at once, not as drips.
