OpenCourseWare: a status report
steven lerman, center for educational computing initiatives
anne margulies, ocw executive director
september 23, 5-7 pm

Entering its third year, MIT's OpenCourseWare initiative now offers the
course materials from 900 courses, from all schools and departments at the
Institute. Available free of charge to anyone with access to the World
Wide Web, the site is currently 35 gigabytes in size, containing 11,425
HTML pages, nearly 9,000 images and nearly 14,000 unique PDF pages. The
project's ultimate goal is to make MIT's entire curriculum freely and
openly available to a global audience of students, educators and
self-learners. 

In this progress report, our speakers will discuss the challenges and
false starts of this project, as well as the successes that have marked
the development of this bold venture. They will demonstrate a sampling of
the material available on OCW and present data profiling the global commu
nity that makes use of the site.

Free and open to the public. Details: [ http://web.mit.edu/comm-forum

Initiatives and is the Class of 1922 Distinguished Professor of Civil and
Environmental Engineering at MIT.

Anne Margulies is the executive director of the OpenCourseWare initiative.

An audio recording of MIT OpenCourseWare: A Status Report will be
available following the event.
