 Coursera and Udemy are excellent sources full of examples of high-quality online teaching offering features such as the following

Includes:

  • Pre-recorded videos
  • Live sessions and office hours
  • Real-world projects
  • Peer collaboration
  • Web and mobile access
If my current NUS online course can be modified to have such features, could I then mount my course as a Coursera or Udemy course? and earn some money at the same time?
Would anyone want to do an academic course in Numerical Methods? Or could I publish my course on YouTube?

What makes an online course effective? If the 5 features outlined above are included, would that make the course effective for student learning? What is the benefit of attending a face-to-face course in university if learning online via courses one can find in Coursera or Udemy are equally good if not better?
