Coursera uses a variant of OAuth2 authentication. The details of the
API can be found at OAuth2-based APIs - Coursera Technology.

Take the following steps in order to use the backend:

1. Create an account at Coursera.

2. Open Developer Console, create an organisation and application.

3. Set **Client ID** as a "SOCIAL_AUTH_COURSERA_KEY" and **Secret
Key** as a "SOCIAL_AUTH_COURSERA_SECRET" in your local settings.

4. Add the backend to "AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS" setting:

      AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
          ...
          'social.backends.coursera.CourseraOAuth2',
          ...
      )
