What is your opinion on online courses? Are they effective?
Almost on daily basis, we get queries about people asking for right course to join with an aim to get a job or get promotion etc. I've often wondered if people actually look online for courses. There are plenty of amazing courses available for under Rs. 1000 or Rs. 2000 ( ~ < $30) from the masters in their fields.
I recently took an online course on a programming topic and was thoroughly impressed. I even took a few advance guitar progressions class and it taught me plenty of things.
I'm wondering if we have fellow engineers who've taken a paid / free class online. Did you find them effective? Please share your opinion and feedback.

Ramani AswathI am always on one or other of these courses. Quite OK at least for my purpose. I have no interest in career oriented ones as I have crossed that point long back. So I cannot comment on such courses. Science courses like Calculus, Astronomy, Mechanics and even English language are good.
