An MIT education for free: MIT Open CourseWare
June 3, 2009
Looking for ideas or resources for your class? MIT Open CourseWare is there to help. Yes, the same MIT that everyone hopes their engineering-focused little one gets into has created a free and open resource for anyone in the world to use. It’s not just math and science courses either; MIT has published complete course resources for all the subjects they teach, from history to music and theater arts. No registration is required, and all document aspects of the courses are in PDF format. There’s even an all-encompassing download if you want to just grab the whole course and look at it offline.
Obviously you can’t earn credit for these courses, but you can pick up a great deal of knowledge, as well as pick and choose top content for your class. So whether you’re trying to find ideas for your classroom or you’re just interested in increasing your own knowledge about a subject, give MIT Open CourseWare a look. You’re sure to find something of interest there. -JASON DON FORSYTHE
