The new "open university" collaboration between Princeton, Stanford, UMich and Penn.

They have some interesting offerings with some impressive people!

I tried taking a course on there, and noticed that 1) offerings are very limited and 2) you have to wait until the course officially "starts", just like an in-person class. I think there are 3 starting April 23rd and all the rest are either this summer, next fall, or "TBA"...I thought the whole idea is that you could take them anytime!

In this presentation by Cecilia d'Oliveira, MIT OpenCourseWare's Executive Director and Shigeru Miyagawa, Chair of MIT OpenCourseWare's Faculty Advisory Committee and Head of MIT's Foreign Languages and Literatures Department, we'll examine the how open educational resources are changing the educational landscape and meeting the global demands for open knowledge.
