That is really gracious, n the best thing for a humble common student like me, who can't afforsd to go to US for that costly education....
Hats off to u MIT for enlightining the world...
Our Govt. and educational institutes like IITs must learn something from it...
It is truly based on the old saying "Gyan baantne se badhta hai"..
I am feeling euphoric!!! Thanks MIT...

The real MIT OCW
by sambadaskar on Sep 02, 2004 12:29 PM

MIT OCW in short is just a collection of slides
from different courses at MIT. For some courses
they have adequate material for study and for
most, they dont. we cannot make out everything
from the slides though the quality of the
content is good.

We should remember that OCW does not get us
a certificate from MIT. Also, just having
a collection of slides does not mean everything.
The instructor will have a lot of comments to
make when he/she displays a particular slide
during a lecture which is much more important.

It would be worthwhile if they also kept videos
of lectures. That is the real thing rather than
the colorful slides. But I doubt they will...
