This is probably one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen in my life. MIT is sponsoring a program to put their entire coursework online free for anyone to use (called OpenCourseWare). They include tests, lecture notes, videos, problem sets, and more. Everything is distributed under a Creative Commons Share-Alike License. It’s a free and open-source education!
