• downloading from the old 'http://class.coursera.org' is easy since:

  • it is a simple html and can be parsed with html parser;
  • all links to the course material is provided in one page url;
  • you can use many popular software like 'DownThemAll' to download all the materials you wish to download;
  • there are many solutions already provided in github.com for this purpose;

• downloading from the new 'https://www.coursera.org' however is harder since:

  • it is javascript rendered and must be parsed using a browser engine, meaning: the html elements you want to parse may not be visible until you view it in a browser;
  • links to the course materials are spread within many page urls;
  • you will get tired of downloading after 144 urls;

• this compiled python gives solution to download all videos, subtitles and transcripts in:

    https://www.coursera.org/
