Gizmo's - 200 Free Outstanding Online Classes | Gizmo's Tech Support Alert

200 Free Outstanding Online Classes

Take classes online from Yale, MIT, Tufts and other respected institutions for free.

The Online Education Database has put together 200 online classes from these and other institutions.
You can take as many as you like that interest you - there seems to be no limit and I couldn't find any strings attached in any of the material I've looked at.

Topics cover a very wide range - everything from Natural Science to Law and Politics.
If you want to learn three-dimensional modeling and animation using the Open Source software Blender, there's a course for that.
Learning and applying HTML, Network Security, Flash, Quantum Mechanics, First Year Chinese, Modern Poetry, and Implant Dentistry are some titles of other classes being offered.

The Visual Arts seem to be missing. I would like to see classes in that area appear in the catalog.
Aside from the missing Visual Arts, if you are a life long learner (of any age) there is a lot to keep you busy.

The Beginning Online Learning page has some wonderful articles and resources. Geared specifically towards learning, there are some gems that anyone can use.

The site is geared towards helping people find financial aid for college and is a bit on the commercial side in places. The class listings segment is relatively free of advertising and worth a few ads.
