I have been taking a class online through EdX, It's called "The Rise of Superheroes and their Impact on Pop Culture" and it's taught by the Legendary Stan Lee and Michael Uslan!
The course was 5 weeks long and you have the choice to either join for free using the Honor system or if you'd like a certificate of completion and a link to your Linkdin profile it's $50.00. I opted for the $50.00 verified course since I'd like to be able to add it to my resume.
Once you've decided to join the class they offer all sorts of social media communication (Twitter, Facebook and EdX) I joined all 5 of the Facebook class related groups during the class and I am now a member of the "First class" group. They have a group for Artists, writers, history buffs, Science buffs and then the general classroom group. They also have a killer optional reading list for week one, people in our class formed mini book groups where they shared their thoughts and opinions about the current graphic novel they were reading.
I found this class to be extremely fun and had a FANtastic time getting to know other fans of comics and fandom films! I was even chosen as a staff pick based on my project! That really surprised me because there were SO MANY really talented people in this class! It can seem a bit overwhelming but don't let that get to you at all because everyone was SO helpful and willing to share and help each other out!
