I think you could just share your results for peer review/assessment via Github or Pastebin for instance.

Well you have accomplished the task of the week, but now must work resolving the doubts and questions of the people who develop the course to get points.

At this point, MOOCs are largely not about credit.  They are about generating skills you can demonstrate or personal enrichment.  Credit is something that MOOC proponents are still struggling with.  A very small number of MOOC offerings are now being done as credit courses of one sort or another.  This is always stated up front and very clearly.  Whereas the MechMOOC is pretty clear about the fact that this is a custom offering that uses multiple sources in an effort to generate a more enriching environment by putting people in a situation where they have peers they can communicate with.
