Fantastic John! In January 2013, Coursera announced that the American Council on Education had approved five courses for college credit. [9] As the journalist Steve Kolowich noted [9] "whether colleges take the council's advice, however, is an open question." The courses that were recommended to degree-granting institutions for college credit are: [9] Algebra from the University of California, Irvine [10] Pre-Calculus, from the University of California, Irvine Introduction to Genetics and Evolution from Duke University Bioelectricity: A Quantitative Approach from Duke University Calculus: Single Variable from the University of Pennsylvania Coursera will offer proctored exams at the end of these courses through ProctorU, an online proctoring service that connects proctors and students via webcam. The service will cost $60–$90. [10] Coursera reduces the cost of courses it offers by making students grade their peers' homework [11] and employing statistical methods to validate the assessment.[ citation needed]
