MIT marks OpenCourseWare milestone
At an event hosted by President Hockfield this afternoon, the MIT community will celebrate a major milestone for the Institute’s open publication of course content, OpenCourseWare (OCW). The event marks the publication of core teaching materials–including syllabi, lecture notes, assignments and exams–from virtually all MIT courses, 1,800 in total. The site includes voluntary contributions from 90 percent of faculty and more than 2,600 members of the MIT community.
