edX's 2016 Year in Review - Dhawal Shah, Class Central

By the end of 2016, edX will cross ten million registered users. EdX is the second largest MOOC provider in the world but, compared to Coursera’s 23 million registered users, it’s a distant second. EdX seems to be closing the gap on Coursera. It added four million new users this year, compared to Coursera’s six million new users in 2016 (six million being the same number Coursera added in 2015). EdX made further inroads in its push for credit by expanding its MicroMasters program, which has now been adopted by fourteen universities located in eight different countries. https://www.class-central.com/report/edx-2016-review/
