is there a way to download the material embedded in the page?

For example course MITx: 16.101x Introduction to Aerodynamics has lots of explanations and questions on its courseware.

I have been looking to do the same thing, On coursera I am to download the course materials as pdf and the videos too. But on I am only able to download just the videos. Could someone who knows how to you python create a new script that can also download the course content as well as the videos. I am looking to use edx in offline mode since my internet connection is not very reliable most of the time. Thanks so so much.

Yes, I know that, being the maintainer of coursera-dl. I also can't live without the download of the supplementary material.

What exact material should we download? There is one problem here, which is the fact that in coursera, everything is neatly organized in a standard fashion, with all the presentations and everything else put together with the corresponding videos.

Is there anything similar to this in edx courses? If yes, then I may, when I have time, try to implement such things in the not so distant future.

Thanks,

No, I don't think they are nested organized on edx. This is always headache to us, especially some courses are trying to create new features in a "hack" way.

I am thinking about checking out openX source code to understand its internal mechanism, but it will take a while for me to do that.

you guys are right, the edx materials are not quite organized, it request you clicking on a subsection of the lecture and then navigating your way through each subsection slides. I am not sure if it will be possible to automated this process, in the mean time I am just screen capturing each page of the lecture materials manually (very tedious) and using the current script to download the video as well. edx_example

It is possible to store those textual materials. We can check if the subsection is textual by taking a look at its icon, but I think most courses will put some links of separate slide files under the video sections or textual sections, which would be hard to follow. Any idea about this?
