Learn for Free

Not just technical skills...


Coursera is one of my favorite places to learn a new topic or even expand my horizons on topics with which I am already familiar.  The pacing of a real class structure, with weekly lectures and homework, applies just enough pressure to keep me motivated throughout the class and permits just enough flexibility to fit it into my real-life schedule.
Coursera is an education platform that partners with top universities and organizations worldwide, to offer courses online for anyone to take, for free.

I believe this is a trend we will continue to advance as more and more colleges and universities open up classes for free.
Open.Michigan is a University of Michigan initiative that enables faculty, students, and others to share their educational resources and research with the global learning community.
