Fifteen tabs open and an old phone lagging. That’s where Josh’s curiosity used to take him.
At 14, he found MIT OpenCourseWare, part of MIT Open Learning. Our free syllabi, lecture notes and problem sets gave his love of economics and math real structure.
His advice? Begin before you feel fully ready. OpenCourseWare is free, so your curiosity could be the start of something serious too.

✈️ What does it take to fly an airplane?
In this clip from his class, MIT professor Amos Winter shares how the Wright brothers solved key engineering challenges on their path to the first flight:
✅ Lift (tested hundreds of wing shapes)
✅ Control (created a system to steer in three directions)
✅ Power (designed their own propeller and engine)

Learning AI on your own? Prabha Jha found something more.
"I think it was eye-opening to be able to meet so many people with diverse backgrounds and geography, and then we connected at the human level."
Her AI program, MIT xPRO's AI for Senior Executives, had an in-person component that let her meet peers from around the world.
Could the people you learn with be part of your next step? Read her full story.

25 years ago, @mitocw helped change who could access knowledge around the world.
What started as a bold experiment in open education has grown into a global movement:
📊 500M+ learners reached
📚 2,500+ free courses across MIT subjects
🌎 Inspired universities and organizations worldwide to expand access to learning
Now, with the launch of MIT Learn — the Institute's hub for lifelong learning — and Open Learning's goal of reaching 1 billion learners in the next decade, the next chapter of open education is already taking shape.

MIT OpenCourseWare and Wikipedia both launched 25 years ago to make knowledge free for everyone. Now OpenCourseWare, part of MIT Open Learning, and Wikipedia are working together.
In a recent Open Conversation, Curt Newton, director of OpenCourseWare; Peter B. Kaufman, associate director of development at MIT Open Learning; and Wikipedian Andrew Lih shared how MIT course materials can strengthen Wikipedia entries on subjects ranging from engineering to literature.
AI helps find where the two fit together, but people make the final calls. As Lih put it, "It's going to take human insight to actually make some of those decisions."
