You forgot the most important weakness: The quality of the courses if often not very good. Even in the few cases when the lecture content is identical to that of the course given on campus the student assessments are not nearly as effective as learning aids.

This is solid content, but I was expecting a comparison of Coursera, udacity, KhanAcademy, and edX.<p>Additionally, may want to add a summary chart using one of the four variations to present a SWOT analysis --<p><a href="http://i1-win.softpedia-static.com/screenshots/SWOT-ANALYSIS-TOOLS-Software_1.png" rel="nofollow">http://i1-win.softpedia-static.com/screenshots/SWOT-ANALYSIS...</a>

Although you may be correct, it seems too early to tell whether this is the case. There's bound to be some issues early on, as they are still so new. They will improve. I believe having that interaction with a professor is so valuable, and something that can't be easily replicated with the way MOOCs scale to the thousands of attendees.
