Speak Freely, Think Critically: The Free Speech Balance Act
Imagine being lowered in a basket from the walls of Damascus to meet a conqueror whose brutal power shaped history—but who paused to debate what makes societies thrive or collapse. That’s how our exploration of free speech begins—with a story that proves the power of ideas can challenge even the mightiest rulers. Today, we face our own pivotal moment in the fight to protect and understand open discourse. In "Speak Freely, Think Critically," you'll uncover: ◦ The shocking ways AI and social media are reshaping how we think and communicate ◦ Powerful techniques used by master negotiators to bridge seemingly impossible divides ◦ Why defending unpopular speech is crucial in our digital age ◦ Groundbreaking strategies for fostering understanding across deep divides ◦ The surprising neuroscience behind why even the smartest people resist opposing views Whether you're a business leader building stronger teams, an educator reaching diverse students, or someone navigating today's social dynamics, this course will transform how you engage with different perspectives. You’ll learn not just to manage challenging conversations, but to thrive in them. The skills of engaging across differences have never been more urgent. Don’t just learn about free speech—master it. Your journey to meaningful, effective dialogue begins here.

Converter Control
This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5702, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree. This course teaches how to design a feedback system to control a switching converter. The equivalent circuit models derived in the previous courses are extended to model small-signal ac variations. These models are then solved, to find the important transfer functions of the converter and its regulator system. Finally, the feedback loop is modeled, analyzed, and designed to meet requirements such as output regulation, bandwidth and transient response, and rejection of disturbances. Upon completion of this course, you will be able to design and analyze the feedback systems of switching regulators. This course assumes prior completion of courses Introduction to Power Electronics and Converter Circuits.

Foundations of Teaching for Learning Capstone: The Reflective Practitioner
This course is open to learners who have completed all eight courses on the Foundations of Teaching for Learning MOOC. It revisits topics covered and focuses on what it really means to be a reflective practitioner. One of the great paradoxes of learning is that the more you know the more you become aware of what you don’t know... and the more you want to know! This course offers an opportunity to further deepen and broaden your professional expertise. It provides an opportunity to participate in practical tasks and assessments that draw on the knowledge and skills gained in the previous courses. If you have completed the eight courses, signed up to the Signature track, met all the assessment requirements of the programme and would like to continue to build on your interest and achievements, this course is for you! There is enough challenge and scope for learners who already have teaching experience, but this course is also suitable for less experienced learners who may not have a great deal of teacher education or may not yet hold a teaching qualification. Announcement for US based teachers: Coursera and its partners are proud to offer eligible teachers in the US free Course Certificates for this course and other high-quality teacher professional development courses, through the Connected effort announced by President Obama. To participate in this opportunity, US district leaders simply need to approve Coursera teacher professional development by completing a brief form at: www.coursera.org/tpd. US Teachers interested in this opportunity are also encouraged to follow the link to learn more and www.coursera.org/tpd. Once a district’s form has been verified, the district leader will be notified and teachers in the district will receive access to free verified certificates for Coursera professional development. Coursera and the Commonwealth Education Trust thank educators for the hard work they do every day and hope this opportunity will assist US teachers to continue developing their craft in a meaningful and flexible way.

Bases teóricas de la gestión de la salud y las lesiones
Este curso introduce las bases científicas de la etiología de las lesiones deportivas, los modelos de carga y el papel emergente de la inteligencia artificial en la prevención de lesiones. Los alumnos explorarán cómo los mecanismos lesionales han evolucionado desde modelos monocausales simples hasta enfoques multifactoriales, dinámicos y basados en sistemas que reflejan la complejidad real del deportista. A través de explicaciones claras y ejemplos prácticos del fútbol, el curso abarca conceptos esenciales como factores intrínsecos y extrínsecos, el modelo recursivo dinámico, la relación carga-lesión y el pensamiento sistémico utilizado en entornos de alto rendimiento. La segunda parte del curso profundiza en métricas de carga de precisión, como el ratio carga aguda:carga crónica, los umbrales de alta velocidad, la carga de aceleraciones, la calidad del sueño y el manejo contextual de la carga. Finalmente, los alumnos descubrirán cómo la IA y el machine learning están transformando la predicción lesional mediante modelos multimodales, algoritmos SVM, árboles de decisión, redes bayesianas, perfiles de riesgo individualizados y sistemas de alerta temprana utilizados en clubes de élite. Al finalizar el curso, los alumnos comprenderán los mecanismos biológicos, fisiológicos y basados en datos detrás de las lesiones, y cómo las estrategias modernas potenciadas por IA reducen el riesgo lesional, optimizan el rendimiento y aumentan la disponibilidad del jugador.
