Sal Kahn pioneered free online education with Khan Academy so it’s no surprise
that the idea is spreading to the university level.
Stanford professor Sebastian Thrun is the
co-founder of a new low-cost (and sometimes free) online university website
called Udacity. He saw
the advantages to those who may not able to afford or attend university
life. Check out his story over at Carpe Diem: Stanford
Prof starts free online university course
in artificial intelligence (AI).
It’s a long video (approx 30min) but the letters
in response to the course are worth the time. If you just want to skip to the
student letters, they start about the 08:00min mark.
