I like Udacity's new focus on courses designed by companies.
Traditional education is far too detached from what is required in industry, and has trouble keeping up with the pace of innovation.

Interesting. I have to admit that I didn't participate in one of the newer coures yet.
Sure, good ideas != good execution.
I feel like graduate school are for people who do not know what they want or interested in at the moment. Once they do, you already locked up in that degree plan, and have no time to go ahead implement the idea.
I much prefer to take classes from edX-like course education sites which I'm not obligated to anything. Once I feel I got a hang of this new field, I can just go and do my stuff.
