Free and open educational materials springboard possibilities of learning new
subjects, enhancing curricula, or inspiring the next generation of leaders.  Here
are a few comments from our friends about how OCW furthers their goals.


- "I am interested in learning everything but could not afford to
   take classes. Finding video lectures online is like winning a
   lottery, finding treasure in my backyard... Thank you very much.
   you all are helping in making millions of dreams come true for
   students across the world." - Rajesh, Self Learner, India

-  "I am studying mathematics in METU and MIT OpenCourseWare has
   been helping me for my courses with videos, lecture notes and
   problem sets. I think this website is very helpful for any
   college student who needs extra materials for courses. Again,
   thank you very much." - Neslihan, College Student, Turkey

-  "As a math teacher and student in the graduate school, the
   materials in the website have truly helped me further my
   knowledge in Mathematics. It also helped me focus on what
   students in High School should learn in preparation for
   the University." - Leo, Educator, Philippines
