Cool blog that also happens to have a list of free education resources. H/T to Jess and the Free Curricula thread going on at the Well Trained Mind board right now.
I like the beginning paragraph:
All education is self-education. Period. It doesn’t matter if you’re sitting in a college classroom or a coffee shop. We don’t learn anything we don’t want to learn.
To me, the fact that people from all over provide FREE education to other people who'll they'll never even know reflects a profound aspect of mankind capsulized by Aristotle so many years ago: All men by nature desire to know. And people instinctively recognize this and respond generously to each other.
