MOOCs in japanese

Postby kaitensuru2862 » May 23rd, 2014 12:41 am

For those unfamilair, MOOC stands for Massive Open Online Course and MOOCs have becoming pretty popular lately as a way to learn stuff on the internet. I've taken a bunch of them in english through sites like edx and coursera but I never really saw any in Japanese... until recently.

i came across this: http://gacco.org/
A Japanese site with Japanese MOOCs.

I thought people here might be interested since one of the best ways to learn a language is to use that language to learn other stuff. Also, it is 100% Japanese and meant for Japanese people so it may be incredibly difficult if your Japanese skills aren't at the level where you can handle stuff like that but if you're up to the challenge its probably worth a try (or at least bookmarking for later).

Thank you very much for sharing the information.
I am interested in that.
Context based language learning is good. :D

Oooh, this is interesting. I like MOOCS but the only one I found in Japanese just taught basic phrases that were sort of hard to apply. I'll definitely have to check this out.
