I took these two MOOCs offered by Coursera and the University of Melbourne this year. I had a logic course 20 years ago, but these were much more extensive and enlightening. Had so many eureka moments, where I saw how this could be applied to things I studied in the past or for things in the future. Earned certificates for both.

Logic should be offered at the high school level. It is an absolutely critical class. Kind of wish I had spent all my time in these two classes instead of spreading it over five classes at the time of the courses.

BTW, if you sign up at Coursera, you can view the course archive and take the courses at your leisure. But you don't get a cert. The stuff you learn is WAY more important than the certificate.
