Not a MOOC, but reasonably-priced online training from Lynda.com, http://www.lynda.com/, is well-respected AFAIK. I know someone who's taken their classes and been very pleased.

The classes weren't coding/design-related though. They were for Office apps, such as heavy-duty math/equation use in Excel and fairly advanced (albeit not with the styles/themes) PowerPoint formatting, especially with goodly numbers of master slides/notes.

But for a previous contract, I was interested in learning about XCode, developing iOS apps, and video for game design. And several of the SMEs agreed that the relevant courses on Lynda.com looked really good.

I hope that it continues to be a great resource; it's been bought by LinkedIn, so who knows what'll change.
