Revolution in Higher Education

                   MIT   and Harvard 
          started the biggest revolution
                 in higher education.

Digital learning  -  ONLINE Learning

Their target is    1  BILLION  people in the world .

They call it   MITx    and   Harvardx

I call them  MITx College   Harvardx  College

They have to have different name than MIT and Harvard University .

There are 2 kinds of universities.

Teaching Universities ( or rather colleges )
Research Universities

First prepares people for life, for how to have skills and make a living with those skills.

Second prepares people for research, for science advancement,
for innovations, for discovering facts of life, for supplyin members to universities  .

To make living people need college education and degrees.
Otherwise they cannot find jobs.

But to go to college became impossible in these days.
Simply people cannot afford it. They do not have the money.

Solution is

How to provide top quality education at a small fee .

Now top quality education at a small fee is being provided by MITx and Harvardx .

MIT   was founded in 1861 in Boston .
It has 1,000 professors + 700 teaching  members
Every year 18,000 applicants , only 9.7 % accepted
Total students are 11,000
It has Architecture, Engineering,Humanities, Management, Science, Health School
Annual budget is  $ 2.5 BILLION .
Only 10 % of this is collected as fees from students .

Harvard was founded in 1636 again in Boston area .
It has 2,100 professors and all teaching members.
Total students are 21,000
It has  Law, Medical, Education, Engineering, Sciences, Health, Business, Dental, Design, Divinity, Government Schools .
Annual budget is $ 3.7 BILLION .

Now they brougth together their POWER in education .

That is digital learning , online learning .
Simulation of the classrooms,
Video lessons segments
Immediate feedbacks
Student ranked questions-answers
Online labs
Forum, discussion boards
Self assessments
Effective teaching methods

To me it is 10 times better and efficient than on campus face to face instructions .

And the very first course of MITx in Electronic Engineering 6.002 showed that .

120,000 students all over the world attended course 6.002  . Only 13 % from USA.  It received great acclaims from all over the world students,
" how perfect was the instructions and learning "
MITx passed the first exam .

Now MITx and Harvardx joined their efforts for online education for the world, TARGET is 1 BILLION people  of the world .

Top schools of the world
Top quality education
At a small examination fee
A certificate of mastering the course
( that means a credit to me )

ONLINE so that people can work to make living
No cost even to drive the schools and parking

No limit on the number of students who can attend .

I believe eventually they will provide a diploma or degree as well . But time  is not ripe to announce that  yet .

This is solution to all higher education problem of the world .

There will be many opponents to it.
For profits + no good colleges  + no good professors
will all oppose to it .

Let us defend this wonderful project for the world .

Since it appeals to billions financially it is sustainable as well .
If they charge only $ 10-20 per course, that means an income of $10-20 BILLION per year, yes every year. It is 3 times of the MIT and Harvard's budgets .

That is technology,
That is vision of MIT and Harvard .
Thanks billions.

Let us do not forget political impacts in the world too .

Only 20 millions American can benefit from this school. But 980 million from other countries will benefit. That means 980 million people + all their families will be indebted to USA for their providing wonderful education to their children .

Whole world will respect to USA whole hearthedly , sincerely .
Probably there will be no war but peace all over the world .

Plus
Obama's promise  " 60 % of the population 15-65 will have a degree as well  soon "  will be met .

USA economy will prospare since it will find all its skilled people everywhere in the USA  at enough numbers .

LET US SUPPORT  MITx +  Harvardx     project  in every platform .

  6. I like you post it to much To make sure you keep up your participation levels, log on to your course at least 5 to 6 times a week, but ideally once every day. Your classmates will be adding to the discussion each day, and missing several days in a row will make it difficult to adequately participate. Asking questions shows that you are taking an active role in your education by trying to understand each concept fully.Emotional Intelligence Hunter
