Refections+on+the+course

I read at the weekend that MIT in Boston has Open source classes for its students. This got me thinking when I looked at their ranking among the Universities of the world last week - Number 1 Source: Students are asked to write weekly short papers of approximately 2 pages responding to the readings (7 in all). In addition you will write two 4-5 page papers analyzing documents (due in Ses #8 and Ses #14). Each student will lead one class with questions prepared in advance for everyone to consider. At the end of the course there will be a final examination.
