7. How do I start Learning online ?
Let’s look into this

8. There are several organizations which offer
online courses. Most of the time, these
courses are
■ Affordable
■ Authorized by top universities of the
world

9. These are the most popular online learning
platforms:
Coursera
Courses are
authorized by
universities and
financial aid is
offered to the
needy students.
EdX
Same as
coursera but you
have to pay to
get your
certificate of
completion.

because of the
variety of courses
but these aren’t
authorized by
universities.

10. Coursera
We prefer Coursera.org – because it actually gives financial aid.

11. Pay the fee
Get instant access to
the course material by
paying the course fee
which is usually
between $50 to $100
per course (about 5000
– 10,000 PKR)
To get enrolled in a course on Coursera.org,
Financial Aid
Or else you can apply
for financial aid. But
you’ll have to wait for
15 days after applying.

12. How does it work on Coursera ?

 Submit assignments
 Pass the quizzes with required grades.
