I did the Pharo MOOC. For such a different culture it was almost 100% pleasure.

Kudos to all the team



How do you "do" it?

I've been unable to really decipher what the MOOC is despite reading the website and watching the videos I could find.

I keep wishing it were a YouTube channel...


Are we talking about this mooc https://www.fun-mooc.fr/courses/inria/41010/session01/about ?

"do" means register for the course ? it seems they did not rerun the course (sadly).

about the content, it's very similar to other PL mooc, you get the Pharo env, first week is basic hands on[1], then you solve problems of increasing complexity (but here it's no CS level problems, more IT/CRUD).

[1] the fun part is that in Pharo, first exercises are about modifying the world you live in. You also learn the versionning system to save/load your work.


Too bad. I was aware of it when they were calling for registration but the time didn't suit me and I just assumed it would be available permanently in some way e.g. online videos. My loss!


I too assumed it would be that way. Many MOOCs did this.. If I hear anything about it I'll ping you.


Hey @agumonkey, small world.


Hey back phil
