A link and review over at TechChrunch should make all students and teachers drool. A lot. A really really lot. Its all about a new resource site called Academic Earth that aggregates lectures and classes from the brightest and the best. From TechCrunch:
Wow. And easy wow. Did anyone notice Yale in there? Best of all, yup these are free. They can be embedded and best of all these are excellent resources for students to cite as all of the individuals involved are actually men and women top in their field! Easy too, (have I mentioned easy enough?) they provide links for students to use for citations and many other tools to make this very user friendly. Check it out:
Academic Earth Is The Hulu For Education
The site offers 60 full courses and 2,395 total lectures (almost 1300
hours of video) from Yale, MIT, Harvard, Stanford, UC Berkeley, and
Princeton that can be browsed by subject, university, or instructor
through a user-friendly interface. Additionally, editors have compiled
lectures from different speakers into Playlists such as “Understanding
the Financial Crisis” and “First Day Of Freshman Year.” The site also
features a roster of famous guest lecturers on entrepreneurship and
technology including Larry Page, Carol Bartz, Tim Draper, Elon Musk, and Guy Kawasaki.
