Three Cheers for MIT!


For those of us who simply enjoy learning new things, MIT OpenCourseWare provides the perfect opportunity to access a high level of educational courses for free. With about 1,800 different courses to choose from, it is indeed an appealing offering.

No registration required, self-paced (obviously), and free (except for the cost of the textbook, should you choose to purchase it).

I think I may start the course "Principles of Pharmacology".

Way to go, MIT. Kudos for sharing.

This sounds like one of the most productive uses of the Internet ever.

I agree. Almost as productive as downloading endless episodes of "Cheers"... wait that's the opposite of productive...
