Aftermarket Education

For its annual Education Issue, Popular Science magazine explored the huge uptick in massive open online courses (MOOCs) and working together with Beutler Ink I helped create this data visualization to bring the numbers to life. Using a series of clusters to represent available MOOCs, we showed the number of courses available through 2014 at nine of the largest MOOC providers. Through light-hearted callouts, we suggest possible courses of study a casual student might pursue. (Appeared in the September 2013 issue of the print edition)
