2、achusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) started to make course content available free online, project organizers surely had no idea that their site would become a favorite destination for science junkies (上瘾者)across the globe. They posted lecture outlines and other materials primarily as a resource
3、for fellow educators. But a whopping 55% of the 750,000 monthly visitors come from the ranks of “independent learners who simply want the knowledge that once required a student ID. “Our biggest surprise was the great number of independent learners,“ says Steve Carson, external relations director for

5、 before. Through those that are known as “open courseware“, anyone that has the Internet access can freely tap materials from about 5,000 courses at more than 150 colleges and universities around the world. BResources from physics to family finance/BThe resource base is expanding quickly. Last year,
6、 Utah became the first state which has publicly funded open courseware by establishing the Utah Open Course Ware Alliance, which provides a lot of materials from seven institutions. Last fall, Yale University launched the first seven in a planned collection of nearly 30 open courses, all of which in

Through open courseware, Yales “Fundamentals of Physics“ and “Modem Poetry“ are as accessible as Utah State Universitys “Fam

Those education scholars see the vast potential. “In this way, independent learners might use course materials to fill in gaps in their educations and save a lot of time because experts have packaged a wealth of information for them“, says Janett
9、e Hill, an associate professor of instructional technology at the University of Georgia.BTake it or give it/BThe open courseware has really excited a lot of people; at the same time, it also is raising some questions, such as how much interaction is necessary to make learning successful. “Do you bel
10、ieve that it is really enough just to have the information?“ Hill asks. “The power of learning occurs in some kind of discussion forum where people can share ideas with each other about what theyve been reading, what theyve been listening to. and extend that to each other.“Users truly have many reas
11、ons for dabbling in open courseware, which, unlike those online degree programs, doesnt offer any course credits. Those sanitation (卫生设施) engineers in developing countries sometimes need technical know-how, Carson says, so theyll try to seek out an MIT engineering course. The Alumni and parents moni

Shirley Thomas of Owings Mills, Md. , says she wants to pursue a new
13、 career after her 27 years in nursing, but shes not sure yet what she can take to study. Finally came her solution: Test the waters by studying international economics through USUs open courseware.

15、pursue. Others, however, have become frustrated because they have to spend a lot of time sorting through piles of materials without any guidance from experts or sounding board for questions. Seventy-year-old retiree Diana Hatfield Bixby browsed MITs open courseware from her home in Palouse, Idaho, b

(but) theres no way I could afford online education, which involves paying some tuition (学费) “, Hatfield-Bixby says. “With this type of open co

But how one is expected to achieve that knowledge has to be clearer, more defined and less intimidating.“ BMore important than just a degree/BAs open courseware matures, its forms begin to vary as widely as its content. Notre Dames “Introduc
18、tion to Philosophy“ for instance, supplements a reading list with lecture outlines. “Introduction to Non-violence“, another open courseware at the University of California-Berkeley, involves watching 28 lectures on YouTube.Not everyone prefers multimedia platforms. In Indonesia, limited bandwidth (带
19、宽)means its easier to download static files than to deal with streaming video or audio. Because many materials from MIT and USU dont require multimedia platforms, teachers across Indonesia are able to access them and benefit, even though theyre not studying for credit. “Learning materials and proces
20、s are much more important here than just getting a degree,“ says Ferry Haris. a computer programmer for the Indonesian government, “especially when books are very costly for most of ns here.“As more institutions supply open courseware, those independent learners, who might not be MIT-level whiz kids
21、, will find that subjects are presented on a more accessible level, according to David Wiley, director of the Center for Open Sustainable Learning at USU. MIT has led the way, but now that MIT has made all of its 1,800 courses available, organizers there will be glad to see others catching up. “Were
