Ask HN: Your on-line education experience

Just to kick-off the conversation. The initial lecture model can be interesting for subjects where you typically listen to a "story" (history, biology, geography).
Do you think it works for applied subjects, or for the ones where it's more experiment oriented?
Would it do any good to move away from the "select an answer" testing into more interactive and complex exercise tools?

I've downloaded a few OSS textbooks (mathematics), and overall they've been great.
I haven't done any coursework, though.

What is your experience? I'd like to group and relay good remarks into the base of the next course in development at one of the Europe's universities, but the discussion should remain open for everyones benefit.
