Coursera partners with top universities worldwide to offer courses, certificates, and degrees in hundreds of subjects. Video Controls Plus transforms your Coursera experience with advanced playback controls that enhance learning, productivity, and enjoyment.
Coursera provides basic video playback controls, but serious users need more precision and features. While the native player offers 0.75x, 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x, Video Controls Plus extends your control far beyond these limitations.

Complete university courses faster
