From Comicbook:
How do you get people interested in furthering their education? The answer appears
to be to offer a course based on AMC’s hit TV show The Walking Dead. Instructure has
revealed some key findings from their massive open online course based on The Walking
Dead, which was a joint production with AMC and the University of California, Irvine.
… The MOOC was taught by a multidisciplinary team of UC Irvine faculty: Zuzana Bic,
public health; Joanne Christopherson, social sciences; Michael Dennin, physics; and
Sarah Eichhorn, mathematics. UC Irvine plans to conduct academic research around the
course.
