MIT adapts free online courses for High Schools <http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/hs/home/home/index.htm> <http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/hs/home/home/index.htm> <http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/hs/home/home/index.htm> For quite a few years now, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has offered various aspects of their coursework FREE online for people to use in developing their own coursework called the OpenCourseWare (OCW) initiative. Now they have created a new web site with free online resources that aim to improve science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) instruction at the high school level. "Highlights for High School," which builds on MIT's OpenCourseWare (OCW) initiative, is designed to inspire the next generation of engineers and scientists and to serve as a valuable tool for high school teachers. OCW publishes educational materials under an open license that encourages their reuse, redistribution, and modification for noncommercial purposes.
