Summer is over. Kids are heading back to college. Luckily, so can you. If you peruse our list, MOOCs from Great Universities, you’ll find 150 free MOOCs getting started this month. Above, see the trailer for Modern & Contemporary American Poetry, a course taught by Al Filreis, an innovative poetry professor from the University of Pennsylvania. The course starts today.
