MIT PUBLISHES 200 NEW COURSES
ON OPENCOURSEWARE
200 new courses bring total to 700, including richer, deeper
course content and more video
CAMBRIDGE, MA (April 1, 2004)
- MIT announced today that the OpenCourseWare initiative has
published 200 new courses to bring to 701 the total number of courses
available at http://ocw.mit.edu.
Following the publication of 500 courses last fall, this is MIT OCW's
second major milestone on the way to publishing virtually all of MIT's
courses by the year 2008.
First announced in April 2001, the MIT OCW
proof-of-concept pilot site opened to the public in September 2002,
offering 32 courses. The official launch of MIT OCW with 500 MIT
courses came in September 2003. Truly a global initiative, the site
has received visitors from more than 215 countries, territories, and
city-states around the globe - including every member of the United
Nations - over the course of the last 18 months. Materials have
already been translated into at least 10 different
languages.
