Every-ware: Open Courseware

From Jordan Barber '09:

As an academic you're likely already aware of this, but I was so interested I figured I would share (for your blog).

MIT has uploaded a huge number (some 1700) of their courses online into a website called "MIT Open Courseware," with many featuring video/audio lectures for each day. Some of the courses contain little information, but many have lectures notes/videos for every class period. The course readings are all in PDF form (except for the books), and they have discussion forums for the individual courses.

Here's the link: http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/home/home/index.htm
And the article that led me to it: http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07322/834852-298.stm

Cool--here's Introduction to Copyright Law with video lectures.
