Free MIT Online Courses Getting a Million Hits Per Month

OpenCourseware

It’s been seven years since the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) launched its OpenCourseware project. The goal of the initiative has been to:

“…advance knowledge and educate students in science, technology, and other areas of scholarship to best serve the world.”

Since then, this repository has grown to include more than 2,000 free online courses. The site is currently getting a million hits per month.

I’m looking forward to taking the 9.0 Introduction to Psychology course this week.
