I use mostly study.com for my courses.  I have taken one history course on Straighterline, and I liked it.  
Seems like the main difference to me is that Straighterline is open book on the final.  They all have quizzes, they all have recorded speeches.  
Can anyone tell me more about their class, speeches, which platform and why? I have been avoiding this one, and I guess I just need to deal with recording myself and get it done.

I took this class in study.com, overall it wasn't bad but I did struggle recording those 3 speeches that you must submit as part of the course. They are very forgiving on little mistakes and do not expect you to know the material 100%. Just make sure you have some notes to guide you and you should be fine.
