There is a fascinating article at insidehighered.com on Open Source Education.  Yale, Harvard, and others — MIT started this — are offering classes for free.  Harvard is providing video lectures for free.  Read the article but also read the comments to it as well.  I really wonder how all these free courses will impact community colleges.   Will students do these free courses and then somehow get credit for it by testing out of it?  The article is located at http://www.insidehighered.com/news/2006/09/20/yale and is entitled  the Next Level of Open Source.
