Default Free access to higher education academic course material
I recently came across the OpenCourseWare Consortium (OCW) and thought I'd share with you all.

OCW is a is a collaboration of more than 200 higher education institutions from around the world, providing free digital publication of educational materials and courses.

Although you can't obtain credit for doing these courses or interact with lecturers or other students, it is a great resource to access higher education content without the entrance requirements.

Kirsty.

@Patty...I'm with you in saying..."What???" I wonder if that's legal its so good! LOL...

I just went and looked and they have stuff in there from MIT even! It says something like over 4000 courses and they even have them in various languages.

Pretty cool. Thanks for sharing Kirsty!

WOW!! What a fantastic concept (and agree - I wonder if it's legal because it's so good!)

Thank you for sharing ... going to go back and dig a little deeper into all the courses they have
