MIT OpenCourseWare Nearing Completion

In 2001, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology announced their OpenCourseWare project, which would make all of their course materials available online for free. In 2003, MIT began the project. Now in 2007, almost all courseware is online, and the project should be completed before the end of the year.

MIT OCW content is currently receiving approximately 2 million visits per month. Fifteen percent of visitors are educators, 30% are students, and 50% are self-learners–generally professionals working in fields related to MIT’s programs.
