Ivy League schooling.. for FREE?!!?!

So... My sister just called me and told me about something she had heard online in a TED talk by Daphne Koller. She said that there was a website out there that was a collaboration of Ivy League schools that partnered together to offer free (Yes, you heard me right.. free) online classes ranging from biology and mathematics, to computer science and business.

The school is called Coursera ( www.coursera.com ). I went through the listings and found classes ranging from Game Design to Computational Nueroscience to Fantasy and Science Fiction. I went through the list, wanting to pick out tons of different classes, but I stuck with just one. I chose to enroll in the Game Theory course. I would also have picked the Science Fiction an Fantasy course, but I am already enrolled full-time at Broward College and I did not want to over extend myself.

I hope this ends up being as good as it sounds. The class syllabuses looked very thorough and the website itself looks amazing. The Game Theory class only requires about five hours a week of work so hopefully it won't interfere to much with my school.

Anyways, wish me luck!
