Open Learning - Pass It On
June 16th, 2008 by

Free is good. Free is especially good when the people giving away the thing for free have a vested interest in giving away the best thing possible. Why? Because ultimately they hope that giving away something of value will be returned in great measure. Now, they could be looking for more business (i.e., commercial gain), more students (i.e., academic gain), more community growth (i.e., societal gain), or more personal growth (i.e., individual gain). Here are some amazing sites where you can get some exceptionally good learning content FOR FREE!
- Carnegie Mellon Open Learning Initiative
- MIT Open Courseware
- Rice University Connexions
- Wikiversity
- iTunes University
- TeacherTube
- Small Business Administration (SBA) Training
- W3 Schools - Web Skills Training
- The Open University
So, this is just a start. Hopefully someone out there is reading this blog, and will add a few more that I have missed. Email me (bill@technicaltrainer.org) or post a comment to this entry. Either way, I would like to add a much more sizeable list of free learning resources.
