ANU’s bilingual MOOC a hit in India

by TIM DODD, Financial Review


Anant Agarwal, president of US massive open online course provider edX, is a native Hindi speaker. But Professor Agarwal had to come to the Australian National University (ANU) in Canberra to find the first edX MOOC to be delivered in his native language. On April 29, ANU will launch Engaging India , a 10-week course which ANU academics McComas Taylor and Peter Friedlander will present online with the help of ANU India specialists, taking advantage of the university’s widely-recognised expertise on the country.
