Leona Ungerer's insight:

I haven't tried these courses myself yet, but they seem promising.

Leonard Waks's curator insight, December 15, 2014 12:36 PM

Free online courses are a great way to provide education to those who needed it at no cost. I am a big fan of ALISON. It is widely used in countries with a weak secondary education infrastructure. As direct foreign investment moves into Africa and South Asia firms need employees with a range of skills that can be acquired through formal education. ALISON is filling the gap, with courses in basic school subjects, plus high need commercial and technical subjects like bookkeeping and accounting,marketing, sales, computer programming, social media, etc.

Scooped from Jen Pollard's Scoop.it - Weebly seems like it would be a great tool for those starting out in using websites in some fashion for their instruction. I could see it being very useful for course management and housing readings, reflections, and more.

Online course providers increasingly using the term 'learning experience' | Inside Higher Ed | Creative teaching and learning | Scoop.it

"As ed tech companies and universities search for the most effective way to teach students online, some have found the term “course” no longer captures what it means to pursue an education.
