Ten Universities with Free Online Courses

The web has democratised a lot of things since its birth, including the learning previously available only with a hefty tuition cheque. College site Education Portal has a handy list of the colleges that offer the most comprehensive course material online, including open-course trailblazers like the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Tufts University, and programs like Stanford’s lecture podcasts on iTunes U. You can’t get a sheepskin for free, but you can further your knowledge and training for less than even the cost of a book.
