Thanks Joel, this is great. 

 

There are also a number of other universities that offer free courses. For
example:

 

http://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm (MIT's open courseware site)

http://athome.harvard.edu/ (Harvard's University's site on various topics)

http://webcast.berkeley.edu/ (UC Berkley's webcasts of previous courses)

http://videolectures.net/ (Bunch of video lectures on various topics)

http://www.khanacademy.org/ (Free lessons on many math and science subjects

http://www.youtube.com/education?b=400 (Youtube.Edu)

http://www.apple.com/education/itunes-u/ (And ofcourse, Apple's iTune's
University)

 

Hope it helps to add to your links.

Dear Joel,

In December, MIT announced a new online learning initiative called MITx.
Free enrollment is now open for the MITx pilot course, 6.002x Circuits and
Electronics. Please visit the
<http://e2ma.net/go/11663403948/4204109/113798815/12960/goto:http:/mitx.mit.
edu> MITx site to enroll. The course will officially begin on March 5.

MITx will build a virtual community of online learners and allow them to
earn certificates for demonstrating mastery of MITx subjects at modest cost.
MITx will also serve as a cornerstone of MIT's research into digitally
supported teaching and learning. For this initiative, the Institute is
developing new online materials to support MITx users. 

Everything on MITx short of credentialing is free of charge, and the MITx
learning platform is being built using open-source software that will be
freely available to the world.

Additional updates regarding MITx will be available through the MIT
OpenCourseWare newsletter
