We at NPTEL have been using Google Coursebuilder extensively for a variety of our applications since 2013. Google stopped officially maintaining CourseBuilder towards the end of 2016, and we have been working on our fork of CourseBuidler since then and are excited to say that we will be releasing it as NPTEL Seek.

The code available here is an old version from Google and we will make the latest version available soon.

In July 2012, Google hosted a 2-week online, community-based course called Power Searching with Google. The course showcased search techniques and how to use them to solve real, everyday problems. We created Power Searching as a MOOC (Massive Online Open Course) by using a variety of Google's existing products and by writing an App Engine application for the course material and assessments.

We were quite pleased with the success of Power Searching with Google. Over 154,000 students from 190 countries enrolled in the course. Almost 68,000 of the original registrants got started by filling out a pre-course assessment. And over 20,000 earned a certificate of successful completion.

Course Builder Experiment represents our decision to open source the code we used to create Power Searching and to document our use of that code in conjunction with Google products to create the entire experience.
