Free Online Learning From Carnegie Mellon University

Today our search for resources for the Free University Project brings us to Carnegie Mellon University's Open Learning Initiative. The courses here look to be the best organized and presented that I've seen so far. Again, they are not offering a comprehensive catalog of classes. These are generally lower division classes, such as a student might encounter in the first two years of college. An independent student combing the online world for resources might be quite happy with what they find here. In fact these courses might be just what someone needs to get prepared to pass a CLEP test for credit. Categories include:


Engineering Statics

Statistics

Causal and Statistical Reasoning

Modern Biology

Biochemistry

Chemistry

Economics

French

Logic and Proofs

Physics

Empirical Research Methods

Computational Discrete Mathematics

Visual Communication Design
