For First time, MIT's free online classes can lead to degree

• pramodliv1 11y ago
  I was excited about the online masters program offered by Georgia Institute of Technology (mentioned in the article) in August 2014, but got rejected. I know my application was not as good as those that were accepted. But why create an online course and prevent people from paying you? I thought one of the major purposes of online courses was inclusion and fighting elitism. Anyway, I created my own curriculum and it is more rigorous than the one offered on Udacity for free. But I do miss interacting with other students.

    Care to share your curriculum?

      Sure, I'm not a CS major. So I'm studying undergrad courses right now. I'm documenting the entire process, but I'm only half way through at this point and I want to get it reviewed before publishing it on GitHub. If you are interested in a particular course, please email me (pramodliv1@gmail.com). I'd love to hear your feedback.
