One of the things I liked the best about Coursera was that most classes had assignments that you submit to an automatic grader that you have to pass to get marked complete. In my experience, this wasn’t available when auditing a course (ie the free part). But to me the Coursera Plus option (like $400 a year for unlimited courses) was well worth it. YMMV

Good point! I generally use Coursera to audit, but I'll add this to the article
