16 Prestigious Schools that Offer Free Online Classes

posted by admin on November 5th, 2008

The world of education is changing, big time. Information technology has revolutionized how we find and share information. Only 10 years ago we had to consult libraries and academics for answers to questions that are now directed to Google.

While the business world is forced to change, education is lagging behind. Perhaps it’s hoping to maintain a position of authority. Maybe it’s afraid of change. Regardless, it’s become clear the future of education is open.

Information wants to be free, and these progressive institutions have taken the first step by making their class free for anyone to use online:

  1. Massachusetts Institute of Technology
  2. New York University
  3. Vanderbilt University
  4. Stanford University
  5. Yale University
  6. University of Notre Dame
  7. Carnegie Mellon University
  8. Tufts University
  9. University of Washington
  10. University of California at Berkeley
  11. Johns Hopkins University
  12. Berklee College of Music
  13. Gresham College
  14. Open University
  15. Utah Valley State College
  16. Utah State University

For students interested in online schools, popular education options include business schools, medical billing, medical assistant training, criminal justice, and health care.

    Indeed a good informatory write-up. However, I think that applying teaching practices, developed after analyzing student’s personal capabilities, weakness and interest, may make the online tutoring more effective. Recently, I had been at Http://tutorskingdom.com/ and realized the difference in teaching approach. If someone is looking online classes, this may be a good source.
