Open University offers free e-learning

The Open University (OU) is unlocking its online educational doors with today's launch of the OpenLearn website. OpenLearn will allow anyone across the world to access, download and use the OU's educational resources for free. The online learning material is taken from Open University courses and uses technologies including videoconferencing, mind maps and instant messaging to get teachers and students interacting and learning.
The £5.65m project - supported by a grant from The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation - will cover subjects from arts and history to science and nature, at all study levels, including postgraduate.
