University of Virginia to offer free online courses



The University of Virginia    announced on Tuesday that it plans to offer free online courses a month after its president was fired briefly in part for her perceived hesitation to embrace online education, WJLA.com reported.

Online platform Coursera said that U.Va. is among 12 institutions that plan to offer the free, non-credit courses through its Internet-based learning system. The school and Coursera said they had worked for several months to reach the deal, which involves no exchange of funds.
