Discussion Cost thread

Proposal

Use the offers property inherited from Event to associate an Offer with each CourseInstance

Examples

Example 1. A free course

Based on Coursera Data Scientist's Toolbox Code example

[Course]
  name: The Data Scientist’s Toolbox
  hasCourseInstance [CourseInstance]:
    courseMode:	online
    offers [Offer]:
      price:    0

RDFA:
<body vocab="http://schema.org/">
<main typeof="Course">
  <h1 property="name">The Data Scientist's Toolbox</h1>
  <div rel="hasCourseInstance" typeof="CourseInstance">
    <meta property="courseMode" content="online" />
    <span rel="offers" typeOf="Offer">
      <meta property="price" content="0" />
    </span>           
  </div>
</main>
</body>
