Coursera offers motivated learners immense online educational varietyIf you are a student, a teacher with an active interest in e-learning, or a professional looking to develop your education and career prospects, Coursera may well be of interest to you. This leading online training and university course elearning provider offers an almost unparalleled range of course titles.Here, we review some of the benefits of learning online with Coursera – a relatively new MOOC (massive open online courses) provider that was founded in 2012 and has achieved widespread success remarkably quickly. Coursera offers students throughout Africa free access to online education with the possibility of a certificate of achievement on successful completion of their chosen course.If you want to learn more about Coursera, I recommend you this in-depth article Coursera online courses – extensive Guide for AfricansIt describes in detail the company behind and lists at least 10 reasons for taking online courses with Coursera.Main FactsCoursera is the leading online course provider for courses provided from the top worldwide universities!All kind of topics are offered and can be booked, the range is enormous.Against a fee the successful training will be certified.Explore 1000+ online courses from top universities.Coursera offers Financial Aid.Go and get more information in Coursera help center.Study FieldsCoursera categorizes its offer as follows:Arts and HumanitiesBusinessComputer ScienceData ScienceLife ScienceMath and LogicPersonal DevelopmentPhysical Science and EngineeringSocial SciencesLanguage LearningFeeThe courses are charged with a fee. The fee varies from courses to course, based on the different Levels and Certificates.You can pay for the entire Specialization upfront, or pay individually for each course as you progress. Financial aid is available for learners who qualify.Access to world class educational providersOriginally set up in North America, Coursera owes its beginnings to two original founders, Andrew Ng and Daphne Koller of Stanford University. An edtech (education technology) start-up, the company has grown rapidly over recent years and now provides online learners with universal access to the world’s best standards of education through MOOC.This online platform provides hundreds of titles of educational content from leading universities, with the ability to search for courses that are of professional or personal interest to the potential student.One of the main advantages of Coursera is that its wide choice of courses includes titles that are developed in conjunction with leading universities worldwide. These organisations are based mainly in the USA and the courses are delivered during a defined period, backed with support from the organisation concerned.A global provider which offers a local presence in AfricaCoursera is very well known and has almost become a synonym for MOOC. The company has 146 training partners based in twenty-eight countries, with approximately two thousand different courses on offer. This provider has an office in South Africa; this relatively local presence is a considerable advantage for potential and new African students who sometimes have detailed enquiries and, quite understandably, look for a reasonably prompt response.It is much more convenient to be able to contact a company with a subsidiary on the African continent which has a local presence to answer questions and provide support. This means there is no need to navigate the extra hurdles of having to contact an office that is geographically remote – in the United States (for instance), with the associated inconvenience of different time zones and possible extra expense of international telephone calls to other continents.A world of choice and diversityCourses may be searched by category; almost every subject is covered in the diverse range of titles from which self-starters can choose for their studies. Most courses are available in English, while a minority is available in Chinese. Many titles are available free of charge, with subjects ranging from computer science to the history of art. Business, maths and logic or physical science and engineering are complemented by social sciences, language learning and even teaching, such as with TESOL Certificates in staged parts.Business English Communication Skills or Intermediate Grammar (University of California) are on offer in the course listings, along with an abundance of alternative titles including the chance to learn Mandarin Chinese, perhaps best suited for those students with a certain linguistic ability and a degree of motivation. Online courses such as these are especially of value to students who are interested in foreign culture as well as in learning a particular language, or who plan to travel to a country for travel or business. This type of introductory e-learning course is designed for beginners and focuses on basic phonetics and everyday expressions. In this example, students do not need to study Chinese characters; this simplifies the syllabus and makes the course easier to follow and complete.Registration and setting up a student profileOn an initial visit to the Coursera website, checked at the time of writing, the web page will initially display in English and a progress indicator increments while the page automatically checks the language settings on the site visitor’s PC or mobile device. On completion of these checks, typically after a few seconds, the Coursera page then changes to the local language, based on the device’s country settings.This may work well for most visitors to the site, but there are exceptions – an African person working in Spain, Italy or France who speaks Spanish, Italian or French only at an elementary level, for instance. Such a visitor may well prefer to work on his or her e-learning registration application in their main language. At the time of writing, there did not appear to be an option to adjust this language setting as a guest visitor. Fortunately, this can be adjusted successfully once the visitor registers a profile using an email address or other social network logins such as Facebook.Distance education delivery and the online interfacesIn addition to an online web page interface for access via PCs and tablet devices, as is typical in the edtech field, an m-learning (mobile learning) smartphone app is also available. Students often find that m-learning offers them additional flexibility and increased opportunities to take advantage of travelling time to learn on the move, or use unexpected delays and free periods to advance their studies and progress.Students are able to programme their study and learning activities according to their own timetables, to complement work schedules, family commitments or even other current courses in progress. Course content includes interactive quizzes, short video lecture presentations, peer assessment and the ability to connect with fellow students and course instructors.In addition to the course content, which is presented by video, there are regular tests to check understanding. These tests (or quizzes, to use Coursera terminology) are by questionnaire – or by machine, with automated corrections. Additionally, other students carry out the peer reviews and there is a final exam before the end of the mobile learning course.Peer assessments are not only useful for the learner, but they benefit those carrying out the assessment and represent a valuable learning experience for al concerned. Review by fellow students provides a human input, as distinct from the computerised marking of work.The Coursera approach is to help the student learn more quickly and more efficiently. The online web and m-learning platforms are based on verified teaching methodologies that have been accredited by educational research experts and have withstood the test of time.A four-pronged approach towards educational excellenceThe Coursera vision and focus on the student has been shaped by four important factors. Firstly, the effectiveness of online education means that, given easier access to online platforms, it can now play a significant part in students’ lifelong learning.Secondly, some of the courses on offer involve blended learning – i.e. face-to-face tutorials or in-centre lectures, complemented with a distance education component delivered as on-line elearning. This methodology appears to work well for conventional universities too; it has been found that a combined approach such as this tends to be more effective and produces superior learning outcomes to instruction that involves only face-to-face elements.Conversely, this approach of combined learning methodologies can be used to balance the predominantly online element of e-learning courses with a partial on-campus element. Some of the institutions on Coursera who provide distance education find that a mixture of elearning and physical attendance at the sponsoring educational provider’s centre or faculty helps to foster student engagement, higher attendance and better performance.Mastery is key to success. According to leading educational psychologists including Benjamin Bloom, best results are obtained by successfully completing one topic before moving on to the next stage. Coursera provides timely feedback and – if necessary – randomised repeat assignments for additional practice.Fees, certificates and covering costsFundamentally, Coursera is a business that provides an online educational platform. As a company, it operates professionally and has formed partnerships with top universities and leading organisations worldwide to offer online courses which any motivated student who has Internet access is able to take. Nonetheless, there are costs that any business would naturally wish to recover; as an organisation, Coursera is currently supported by venture capital fundraising.Accordingly, not all the courses are free of charge – though, for the courses that do charge a fee, potential students may apply for support with those costs if their financial situation so dictates. Additionally, a fee is charged for certain course completion certificates.On successful completion of a course, students are currently entitled to receive a Coursera statement of accomplishment, free of charge. There is no need to produce identification for this. Alternatively, a fee is payable if formal qualification or attendance certificates are required. This paid service gives the successful student an ID-verified certificate; the cost is between USD $29 and $95 per certificate depending on the course title. Additionally, there is the possibility of financial assistance for students who cannot afford to pay the fee. Students who excel receive a certificate that is annotated with a distinction.In the words of Coursera themselves, verified certificates ensure academic integrity. Courses from this provider seem to be generally well respected as having a high level and, in the eyes of companies and potential employers, constituting official education.Completion ratesUsually, MOOC completion rates are relatively low; many would-be students start courses but then do not go on to fully complete them. This could be due to a number of possible reasons; the general rate for completion of MOOC courses by all starters is approximately 15 percent. Notably, this proportion increases significantly when, as is the case with Coursera, students can opt to pay a fee for a certificate.Strengths, weaknesses and feedbackThe challenge for learners and course providers is to combine all these well-established e-learning methods and suitable data security checks with the content and processor needs of mobile learning via a smartphone application. Sometimes a relatively basic mobile phone may be sufficient, though generally the courses are better experienced with a more powerful smartphone. The popularity of smartphones in Africa has led to a strong market demand for Android and other applications on devices. Characteristically, throughout Africa, Internet access by phone is more widespread than access to the World Wide Web through fixed ADSL broadband or standard telephone lines.Feedback in the Coursetalk forum mentions that Coursera offers some of the best university professors from the world over, including computer science and neurobiology. Coursera was reported as offering suitable learning programmes for skill tracks, with subjects ranging from statistics to first aid, or science to astronomy.According to largely positive recent reviews such as in the online edition of PC Mag, Coursera is credited with offering the most extensive and eclectic list of courses for an online training and higher education provider of its type. Self-paced on-demand lessons are available, in addition to timed classes over periods ranging from four to twelve weeks. Discussion boards are reported to be well administered, although some users report that in the case of humanities courses, assessments may be inadequate.Some experts consider that smaller educational institutions and junior faculties are not proportionately represented in the course catalogue, due to the entry requirements (money, time and support) acting as a possible barrier to access.Conclusion: e-learning with Coursera online coursesDuring a recent interview, Richard Levin (the Coursera CEO and a former Yale College President) went on record saying that few educational experts, if any, expect Coursera to replace four-year university courses.Nonetheless, the fact that Coursera does not provide the same credentials and personal networking opportunities – or even the same overall communal experience of a more conventional university degree course – does not mean that its free online courses can not be enjoyed, used to develop new skills and satisfy old curiosities.If you are a teacher, lecturer, university professor or other educational professional, a student or indeed anyone who wishes to find out more about online courses with Coursera, you are invited to click here for further information, free of charge and without obligation.If you like my answer, do me a favor and upvote my answer 😊 Thank you!Click on my Quora Profile:· Extensive guides (How-to Descriptions)· Product links with recommendations and discounts· Invitation to my Messenger Chat

Your teacher is either kidding or really really uneducated for someone who’s gonna impact children’s knowledge and critical thinking. Ancient Persia contributed practically as much as Greeks/Romans. Of course, the only way to prove this statement is only to bring up examples which I try to mention as many as I can but I’ll eventually get bored so you can use Science and technology in Iran - Wikipedia, List of pre-modern Iranian scientists and scholars - Wikipedia, Islamic Golden Age - Wikipedia, Iranian philosophy - Wikipedia, Top 10 Inventions and Discoveries of Persian Civilization, Inventions & Innovations of Ancient Persia, List of pre-modern Iranian scientists and scholars - Wikipedia, etc sources. Notice you only mentioned the Persian Empire, You didn’t mention a specific date so I’ll take that as before the contemporary era and mostly during Islam’s golden age. Also, I try to give away some links if anyone’s interested in reading more.Mathematics: Probably the most exciting topic on this list. Mathematics in medieval Islam was built on the basis of Greeks’ and Indians’ mathematical concepts especially Archimedes and Aryabhata.Algebra: Persian polymath Muhammad Ibn Musa al-Khawrazmi played an immense role in the development of algebra, arithmetic, and Hindu-Arabic numerals. Khawrazmi has been described as the father or the founder of algebra. the word “algorithm” had been influenced by “al-Khawrazmi” through the years, just a little cool “Did you know” fact…Another Persian mathematician, Omar Khayyam, is credited with identifying the foundations of Analytic geometry. Omar Khayyam found the general geometric solution of the cubic equation. His book Treatise on Demonstrations of Problems of Algebra (1070), which laid down the principles of algebra, is part of the body of Persian mathematics that was eventually transmitted to Europe.Ninety-five of 146 books known to have been written by Bīrūnī were devoted to astronomy, mathematics, and related subjects like mathematical geography.His religion contributed to his research of astronomy, as in Islam, worship and prayer require knowing the precise directions of sacred locations, which can only be accurately found using astronomical data.Biruni's major work on astronomy is primarily an astronomical and mathematical text; he states: "I have begun with Geometry and proceeded to Arithmetic and the Science of Numbers, then to the structure of the Universe and finally to Judicial Astrology, for no one who is worthy of the style and title of Astrologer, who is not thoroughly conversant with these for sciences."Geometry: Al-Qūhī, A Persian mathematician was the leader of the astronomers working in 988 AD at the observatory built by the Buwayhid amir Sharaf al-Dawla in Baghdad. He wrote a treatise on the astrolabe in which he solves a number of difficult geometric problems…Persian Architecture and Mathematics: An Overview.Category: Iranian mathematicians - WikipediaPhilosophy: Persian philosophy is mostly influenced by Zoroastrianism or Islam.Ancient Iranian Philosophy: I honestly don’t know much about Persian philosophy so the only thing I can do is to copy and paste whatever is written on Wikipedia but I think it’s more efficient if you all take a look at it on your own: Ancient philosophy - WikipediaClassical Islamic period: More known Persian philosophy is the Islamic one. Scholars like Avicenna, Mulla Sadra, etc overall contributed to philosophy especially to subjects such as Existentialism, Truth, and Methodology.Avicennism is a school of Islamic philosophy that was established by Avicenna. He developed his philosophy throughout the course of his life after being deeply moved and concerned by the Metaphysics of Aristotle and studying it for over a year.Mulla Sadra’s Philosophical Ideas - Wikipedia (Mulla Sadra - Wikipedia)Persian philosophy can be traced back as far as to Old Iranian philosophical traditions and thoughts which originated in ancient Indo-Iranian roots and were considerably influenced by Zarathustra's teachings. According to the Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy, the chronology of the subject and science of philosophy starts with the Indo-Iranians, dating this event to 1500 BC. The Oxford dictionary also states, "Zarathustra's philosophy entered to influence Western tradition through Judaism, and therefore on Middle Platonism."Islamic philosophy - WikipediaEarly Islamic philosophy - WikipediaList of Iranian philosophers - Wikipedia (The list is longer in Persian Wikipedia)Medical Science: If we leave artists out, Pre-modern medical scientists were always the most respected people in ancient Persia. Pre-modern doctors like Avicenne have affected medical science throughout their books.Also, There was a library in Gundeshapur; The Academy of Gundeshapur was one of the most important libraries in the Middle East, with its medical library a wonder of the ancient world.Ancient Iranian medicine - WikipediaIranian traditional medicine - WikipediaList of medieval and pre-modern Persian doctors - WikipediaLITERATURE: If we ignore every single other thing that Persians contributed to the world, We can’t leave literature behind. Persia is famous for its poets, flexible language, and meaningful poems. Persian poets like Hafez, Saadi Shirazi, Omar Khayyam, Attar Nishapuri, Rumi, Ferdowsi, etc have world-wide fame even after a couple of centuries after their death.Persian literature - WikipediaWhy is Shahnameh so important to Persian and Iranian culture?Lists of Persian poets - Wikipedia | List of Persian poets and authors - WikipediaArt: Persian art or Iranian art has one of the richest art heritages in world history and has been strong in many media including architecture, painting, weaving, pottery, calligraphy, metalworking, and sculpture. ... ‘Rock art’ in Iran is its most ancient surviving art.I don’t care where you’re from, But you can’t tell me you never heard of Persian rugs.Arts of Iran - WikipediaList of Iranian artists - WikipediaPersian art - WikipediaI did say eventually I’m gonna get bored, so here are some links if you’re that interested in learning about Persia’s other contributions to science.Music: Persian traditional music - Wikipedia, Rhythm in Persian music - Wikipedia, Kitab al-Musiqa al-Kabir - Wikipedia, etc.Physics: History of physics - Wikipedia, Category: Iranian physicists - Wikipedia | رده:فیزیک‌دانان اهل ایران - ویکی‌پدیا، دانشنامهٔ آزاد | Category: Persian physicists - Wikipedia, etc.Chemistry: Alchemy and chemistry in the medieval Islamic world - Wikipedia, Category: Iranian chemists - Wikipedia, Category: Persian chemists - Wikipedia, etc.By the way, Current Persia contains a lot of different countries, so It’s not that this whole thing is related to ‘only’ Iran.There are a lot of Persian or Iranic scholars in the current era but for the sake of the question, I’m not gonna mention them.I left out a lot of things that you can easily find on the web or in undisputed history books.Hope you can show this to your teacher or just introduce them to google where they can search out the baseless claims they make before feeding it to other people.Merci khundin!
