MIT OFFERS 2,000 CLASSES via FREE OpenCourseWare
What could be more validating that FREE software and materials is the wave of the future than MIT so generously sharing not only their course materials but actually creating videos and audios to promote education and higher learning.

Here is a bit of information straight from the website of MIT  http://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm

“Unlocking Knowledge, Empowering Minds.
 (OCW) is a web-based publication of virtually all MIT course content. OCW is open and available to the world and is a permanent MIT activity.  Free lecture notes, exams, and videos from MIT. No registration required.

What is MIT OpenCourseWare?
MIT OpenCourseWare is a free publication of MIT course materials that reflects almost all the undergraduate and graduate subjects taught at MIT.

    * OCW is not an MIT education.
    * OCW does not grant degrees or certificates.
    * OCW does not provide access to MIT faculty.
    * Materials may not reflect entire content of the course.

How do I register to use MIT OpenCourseWare?
There is no registration or enrollment process because OCW is not a credit-bearing or degree-granting initiative.”

When you search for classes be aware that there are classes with both video and audio classes available.

How about watching videos to help you learn calculus!
HIGHLIGHTS OF CALCULUS
MIT Professor Gilbert Strang has created a series of videos to show ways in which calculus is important in our lives.
