MOOCulus - Massive Online Open Calculus

Very cool!

The lecturer seems like a nice guy +into the subject, the videos looked entertaining (not just someone speaking), they have a very free textbook with lots of examples AND, perhaps best of all, they are using the khan-exercises framework for the exercises.

It is interesting that they use coursera credentials for the login but they don't seem to be part of coursera per se.

I started this course today (through Coursera) and so far it's great. Looks like they're using the Khan Academy software for the practice exercises and the videos are excellent. The instructor is high-energy and sort of eccentric and it's a real hoot watching at 1.25x speed. My only gripe is the textbook: it looks slick, but the weird Greek letters start on the first page and the prose is...laconic. The rest of the course materials seem geared specifically towards totally green beginners; the style of the textbook is a little divergent.

I wish this was available when I took calculus in the previous semester. Looks pretty good, the instructor looks motivated as well.
