- Daphne Koller is enticing top universities to put their most intriguing courses online for free -- not just as a service, but as a way to research how people learn. With Coursera (cofounded by Andrew Ng), each keystroke, quiz, peer-to-peer discussion and self-graded assignment builds an unprecedented pool of data on how knowledge is processed.
With Coursera, Daphne Koller and co-founder Andrew Ng are bringing courses from top colleges online, free, for anyone who wants to take them. Bio:

Coursera really helped me when I was learning web development. I have since switched careers.
"The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled."
-Plutarch
There's an amazing point here about Analytics. The data that we can collect through online courses can be so, so useful from an instructional point of view and be crucial tot he course, not just for students (to whom we can give precise feedback), but also for the instructors who can see where the the learner is getting confused and thus revisit the course and make necessary adjustments.
7 years later there are thousands of courses. Thank you.
Daphne Koller's mission is an inspiring one. Every time we see online videos like this, we realize how far we've come as providers of online education. An eye opening video - many of our students have been influenced by it to consider enrolling in educational programs with us at Online Courses Australia.
God! This video gave me goosebumps! I was brought up in a society where education is not only a right, but a must. The word 'education' literally means 'to bring out', meaning to give rise to our potential. However, being forced to learn will only oppress us instead of 'igniting' us, which is a shame. I'm honestly astounded by Daphne's dedication and determination!
I love you Daphne! Coursera changed my life dramatically. Thank you so much for giving us Coursera!
I am taking my first Coursera course and am getting much more out of one course than another masters program would give me, exactly what I was looking for in my continual professional development... with the added bonus of creating a global network of highly skilled professionals. Thank you Daphne and Andrew, Coursera, and The University of Edinburgh.
This is amazing. Never even heard of this. Definitely going to use it.
Love Coursera! I'm housebound & unable to sit in a class. I loved my classes at our local CC, the mean age was 33 & it was wonderful. Personally, I detest multiple choice tests; give me written tests where I can explain in depth & connect with like- minded others.
This talk ignited my heart.
it is a privilege for me to learn from Professors of Standford and Michigan, and get the perfect personalized guidance. Really thankful to Andrew Ng and you ma'am for creating this wonderful stage MOOC
The brace of possibilities here is so huge that it practically brings tears to my eyes. There's no way I can express how much this would have benefited me in my youth.
How wonderful to think there's a chance of the future being illuminated for the many who have no access now.
Amazing! specially the second half of the speech.
I felt exactly the same: goosebumps! I love Coursera so much, I hated my first education and I left it thinking that I was stupid... They wanted us to repeat the notes by the rote... It turned out that I love studying: not repeating, but really learning new things! Coursera gave me new dreams. My dream is to teach people one day. I would like to send this video to all my university professors in Bulgaria as a message what the idea of teaching is.
I've had to transcribe this from the top, pick out the paper and conduct further research in order to embed it in my learning and consciousness. Worth sharing widely. Inspirational. A convincing portrayal of where education is going and how it will get there.
At 10:50 she states that being able to interact with the material, and be told when you are right and wrong is absolutely essential. I cannot agree more.
I had MANY math textbooks that had the wrong answers in the back of the book. And when you're trying to study at home and the book is wrong, what do you do?
I'm very thankful to Coursera and other online educators. You're awesome!!!
I'm preparing education start up just like coursera, mooc but with little different perspective. Her talk gave me inspiration.
This is such a fantastic idea. Sharing top quality learning opportunities around the world for free is just so refreshingly giving in these days of personal greed. I've been studying with them and I'm blown away by the forums aspect of the course. Here you get a dedicated forum for your course where you can discuss course topics and interesting questions raised by students all round the world bringing such a fascinating and refreshingly different take on what you are learning. Thanks Coursera :)
I found the coursera site 2 months ago. I think its the best idea ever. I didn't have the chance to go to varsity, but these course got me a whole lot further.
Thanks - this inspired me to continue to add technology to our sailing eLearning program. Currently we've reached 90 different countries with tens of thousands of students. We have a real passion based product - so the desire is there - albeit many times people's work gets in the way of recreation. Still we are causing a huge growth because of our eLearning approach in a semi stagnated industry. We're capturing people in their arm chair at home dreaming about sailing to having them take action
I have taken 2 courses on Coursera. Both are very high quality and great learning for me. The opportunities Coursera brings to the world is tremendous! A big thank you to the Coursera team to "make this happen".
College drop out here....yet a life long learner. I've been using coursera for a year now and in the beginning I just went crazy on enrolling to a bunch of classes that I've never completed. Just a few days ago I completed my class on Business innovations from the University of Maryland taught by Dr. Green. I'm loving the fact that I can learn about the stuff Im interested in. Not only that but I've learned to really discipline myself in doing my assignments/tests without being told or having the fear of failing a class. I believe her predictions are right and that this type of education is revolutionary. Anyone that has something negative to say about it, all I can say is that it takes time to improve something that will eventually change the world, the experiences (wether negative or positive) that we have now as MOOC students are a part of the steps to create an improved MOOC system.
blown away by this... this is absolutely amazing. this woman deserves a nobel prize or something for pioneering something that i hope will be a trend going forward. google should take notice and throw all their weight and resources behind an idea like this.
I think COURSERA is gonna become my new favorite website, along with TED.
Thanks, TED! Thanks, Daphne Koller! Definitely signing up in a minute; that was GENIUS!
Moocs are changing the way education is delivered . truly democratises it and makes it accessible globally.
Très bien compris ce que c'est un mooc et bientôt
This information is invaluable to me as I am in the beginning stages of designing an online skills developement site for improving the functional family dynamic for Christian focused families.
Thank you for your insights. I am blessed by what I am learning through TED talks.
Brilliant features that Coursera has! Brilliant thinking about the retrieval technique!
Amazing woman!
Amazing website!
This will get us to the future.
In a world that is constantly evolving you should never stop learning.
I am loving Coursera!!! is a great tool and an amazing idea for the world and for the people that want to keep on learning or who love learning like me
Dr Koller... Thanks a million for creating Coursera! You have no idea how much it has changed my life!
A better educated world population might prevent another devastating war.
Abba Okoro wars cant be stopped? NONSENSE!
Abba Okoro there will be no peace until there is internal peace. Be the change you want to see in the world.
Not really
Most of the wars nowdays coming from people how are actually well educated because of personal goals or parties
@@meji9525 not necessarily. it is well educated people beating the drums for war, but it is less educated people who follow the beats of the drum. education will not take away those who try to start a war, but it can lead to fewer people following them.
Excellent! I can't wait to see what all they have to offer, I have been wanting to go back to school however, I can't afford it so hopefully this is the answer.
Thank you mam. Because of courses on Coursera I have the opportunity to use internet for learning . I have completed 13 courses . Thank you Coursera. A BIG THANKS TO COURSERA.
I signed up today, this idea is brilliant I plan on learning so much from Coursera!!
This is one of the best TED Talks I have ever watched.
Informative and relevant. Andrew Ng most recent online talk was enlightening and illuminated existing opportunities.
So admirable what she's doing. and truly inspiring, never-goes-out-of-style ted talk ever
What an incredibly interesting, inspiring and motivating video on the revolution of education. Watching this brings so much hope for so many people around the world. Thank you!
hats off for Daphne koller n other member of coursera ,recently i have signed up this site for learning python programming language.well, it has really save my valuable time n didn't need to google again n again for information.
Thank You Daphne Koller. I am infatuated with your scope and vision. I just enrolled in Music Theory from Coursera, sponsored by the University of Edinburgh.
Fantastic talk. I learned a lot. Thanks.
Thank you. Really appreciated effort..
I have just started learning form coursera. It feels really good to be the part of this innovative online education.
I'm currently in the final stages of two six-week courses through coursera. I went to very well-regarded universities for my traditional education and I hold a BA, JD and MBA. I have to say that these coursera courses rate with the best educational experiences I have ever had. The professors are outstanding, the materials top-notch, and the interaction with other students has been really great. This lady is a genius. She deserves a Nobel prize for creating this & making it work so well.
Thank for sharing. Appreciated ....
This is amazing... People like them are really doing something to make the world better!
Absolutely incredible!
Thank you for your dedication and passion to humanity!
this definitely needs more attention, it is probably one of the best ideas on this channel
Added to favorites.
Much of what she's arguing is similar to arguments i've been using for some years now, but she has put a lot of work into making a coherent and great talk out of it, and has actually also begun putting it into action.
I wish this type of learning was avalible when i started school. During grades 1-10 i was mostly bored, and did almost no homework, but was still in the top 3-5 of all my classes. I was bored during lectures as everything was spoon-fed to the slower students.
this is a huge step forward in the world development. the most wonderful thing that i came across in a very long time.
Thank you so much Daphne Koller!
Excellent presentation, very interesting and held my interest throughout! Wonderful job and a great vision for the future.
Me parece admirable la idea de tener una educación apta para todos y la manera de llegar a las personas que no puedan pagar o de alguna manera entrar a una universidad, y los métodos que utilizan para interactuar con los estudiantes de la manera virtual ayuda mucho a aclarar dudad que uno puede tener.
that's a great program. i appreciate all of them who are behind "coursera".
i gone through the site. it is really useful for common people, who can't afford to learn such courses...........
Thank you.............
thanks you coursera, u course mean a lot to me.
i always grateful for that!
Hats off for Prof. Daphne Koller, Prof. Andrew Ng, and other professors who engaged in MOOCs...truly a noble work that they have done...
Great video! thanks for sharing more this important tip for us!!
Free education is available now all around the world! I appreciate the opportunity of studying in university, and i hope i can be a life-long learner by using the learning courses and materials online to acquire more knowledge and skills for myself, my family and my community. i believe i would have opportunity in the future to help others all around the world.
Okay okay stop. She's not right.
I'm an active Coursera user and every time on a course there is peer grading, the forums are instantly chaotic with people complaining about it.
I for once have had the experience of having people grade me a very low grade because they didn't agree with me opinion. They didn't even justify it. They said "I don't agree". Bang.
Or on the 4th week of a course a peer who barely talked english got to rate my work of over 1000 words below average and then gave a incomprehensible answer. These kind of stories are very known and repeated in almost ever coursera course.
Granted, it is a good way to grade, especially with some improvements (like dropping the lower score given) but it's far for being perfect or as successful as she makes it seem.
Free Education for all ..Thanks Coursera
WOW...this is amazing stuff....I'm all for this...this is a world changing idea! Love people that think outside the box!!
Thank you, this is gonna be incredible!!!, i suscribed within 4 minutes of hearing this.
Bravo, bravo, outstanding, amazing
I just signed up for a bunch of courses over the next 6 months. While I will need to catch up on 2 weeks of work for one, another started yesterday. That leaves me quite a bit to do in the next few weeks, but it gives me something worthy to do when I'm not exercising, reading or writing.
I really like Coursera. However, this video is a bit misleading. Coursera is a COMPANY and this TED Talk doesn't really make that clear. It's backed by Venture capitalists... not philanthropists. In a Forbes article when Daphne was asked if they would need to go public she said “We have outside investors, and they expect a return.” Maybe being backed by VC's is a better strategy and the funding will benefit students. I don't know. Either way, I thought it was an important point to note because the video doesn't mention that. Not saying their approach is wrong, just wanted to fill in that information gap.
Yes there is a difference, there are some learning institutions which are entirely free ie. Alison offer's free certified courses online this is the way all learning should be. So does the University for the People. Germany provides all free post secondary school.
Thanks, thanks, thanks.
Just thanks to teachers with the transforming ideas of reaching to the world with free education. You are changing the world and I see it.
Thanks again.
This is perfect, those who want to learn will learn. I can't wait to check out their curriculum.
So admirable, what people like you do!
Online education is inside our lives more or less 1 year.İf you really focus you get nice results and you learn lots of things rather than face to face education.Because you don't spend time going school,going back home or activity with friends etc.But unfortunately we can't socialise,we stucked our homes:((.I hope humanity can get over this damn illness as soon as possible.
Thank you Coursera!Bravo!
I really like the ideas behind this video. It's very similar to what I have said in the passed based on my life experience. :-)
I think universities and social learning is also very important too though. And I do think it's good for people to go in to a class so a teacher can be sure it is them doing there own work and not just downloading content from different sources and miss matching to pass. That is the only flaw I see so far. But for learning in general this is brilliant. :-)
What a brilliant woman. I agree with every single thing she said. It must have been so amazing for her to build something like Coursera that really starts us on the path to giving everyone the possibility to have lifelong learning. I'm also a huge fan of her co-founder Andrew Ng. Another amazing mind.
Coursera is an amazing website. I took startup engineering by Stanford. What a great course!
Wow. One of the best videos I'd ever seen in my whole life. Go Coursera!
What an inspired presentation!
Beautiful!
Profound. Thank you for sharing.
Yeah, just started a couple of courses there a few weeks ago. Really great stuff :)
Thank you Daphne. You have certainly made the world better place to live!
Simplesmente maravilhoso!
Thx for the opportunity to change the life!
lovely, lovely, LOVELY...I am about to cry because this video shows me that there is nice people in this world who do consider and seeking for solutions how to make everyones life better!!!!! Thank you for beeing awesome!
Superb idea - fantastic!
excellent. a very encouraging talk!
Well done Daphne and everyone involved. Keep up the excellent work.
Excellent presentation ..thank you !!!...
Highly inspiring presentation that talks to very critical human rights issues of universal access and lifelong learning. With such initiatives the world would really be a better place to live. I will certainly visit the coursera site.
I cannot afford to work and go to school at the same time! coursera is helping me do that!
mam..you are awesome..And thanks to you and Andrew Sir that we can learn from the best teachers from all over the world..:)
Bien jouer et bien compris Rahul
Excellent and thought provoking. Great tips for our new learners!
Thank you very much.
Daphne Koller es una profesora israelo-americana del Departamento de Informática de la Universidad de Stanford, ganadora de una beca MacArthur. Es también una de las fundadoras de Coursera, una plataforma de educación en línea.
Absolutely brilliant...
Many of the resources available in today's university library are available on line, particularly journal publications.
Congratulation Professor Daphne Thanks for share your high level knowledge God bless you See you in Coursera Classes ¡
I am from brazil and learning english and being able to watch online courses really made the difference. I would never be able to get all the knowledge that i have now,using the current educational system on brazil.
Perfect, glad to see someone already got this prepared. This is one part within The Purposeful Brain Education Systems- that I'm interested in talking about soon.... Coursera, a great name.
Wow. Great stuff. Kudos!!
