A Free MIT Education [Justin]

Posted by Justin under Technoblogging View recent posts with the tag Technoblogging on Technorati 

I think it was Coop who linked to this a long time ago. The world-famous Massachusets Institute of Technology has open-sourced every course they offer, and it’s all available here. You can do the same work and learn the same material as real MIT students (though the offer “Does not provide access to MIT faculty”). Not bad. I’m planning to bulk up my computer science background.

Justin-

I checked out this MIT site last fall, before all the classes were set up, after reading about it in Wired. It looks good, and it’s a great reference source, at the very least.

The article emphasized that people in other countries are very hungry for the this type of open-source education.
