Tired of looking for courses and attending seminars from regional "gurus" and "educators"? At the same time, you want to improve your knowledge of English, but there is no way to pay for distance education at a foreign university? It's okay: at your service there are more than 50 sites that allow you to listen to and watch lectures online for free on a whole range of specialties and areas.
1. UMass Boston Open Courseware
Free courses in psychology, biology, political science, history, mathematics, and a range of liberal arts disciplines with access to a list of classes, recommended reading. Disadvantage: This resource does not have a video course or presentations based on the results of the lecture.
2. Khan Academy
A huge database of video lessons in more than 20 languages, all courses are divided into separate lessons with the ability to view each video regardless of which course you choose. The main emphasis is on video as a way of providing information, there are no reading materials here.
3. MIT Open Courseware
To get into this institution, people from all over the world spend a lot of money and effort. However, free courses are also available here. The material is available for download indicating the structure and duration of the course. Perfect for those who want to try themselves in the field of technical and applied sciences and are not averse to engaging in intensive self-education.
4. Free-Ed
There is also a division into courses and lessons + the ability to search for pages and groups on Facebook and on other sites for students who are studying the same course.
5. Learning Space: The Open University
All materials are divided by age and thematic groups, lecture material can be downloaded from the site to your computer, and the topics of the offered courses are quite wide.
6. Carnegie Mellon Open Learning Initiative
Here, to access educational materials, you will have to create your account on the site. It is assumed that the user studies the material on his own, there is no tuition fee, but there are no instructors / teachers and exams to take.
