I think that trying to come up with test questions to determine if someone has understood posts in the Sequences (as well as other rationality material) is a worthwhile project, which has been suggested before.
I believe there have also been attempts to make a rationality MOOC; this comment links to some discussions (as well as being posted in response to another discussion of it), and I suspect Konkvistador is still a good person to contact.
CFAR runs courses. They could probably put on a MOOC without having to make a new curriculum
In-person classes and online classes are different, and should be taught differently. At some point I suggested that they just record a seminar, to possibly post parts of it online, but generating good material for a course and then administering it both represent expenditures of nontrivial amounts of capital and effort.
Well, they could start with a set of mini-modules and upload them to youtube. A couple hours of total content. Put lecture notes and homeworks and a forum on a website. That was a pretty typical way to prototype the early MOOCs.
