| مستخلص: | The concept emerged in 2000 at Massachusetts Institute of Technology where then-President Charles Vest charged a faculty committee with answering two questions: "How is the Internet going to change education?" and "What should MIT do about it?" These questions were put to the committee at the height of the dot-com bubble, when a number of MIT's peer institutions were already launching high-profile distance learning ventures. Highlights for High School (ocw.mit. edu/highschool) lists around seventy introductory courses with content an advanced high school student might find approachable; further, the portal maps more than 2,600 individual video and print learning resources from the advanced placement curricula for physics, calculus and biology; and finally, the portal links to OCW materials selected to inspire the study of STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects, including engaging demonstrations and competitions. |
