To date, MIT has published over 1700 online courses, which are being accessed by more than 1 million users every month. And it is not just the rest of the world that benefits – MIT students are happy with the initiative as well: 35% of first-year students say there were aware of it and that it positively influenced their decision to attend MIT [5].

The Open Courseware Consortium, a network of more than 150 members across the world, estimates that about 4200 open courses have been published to date – which puts MIT's share at 40% and shrinking [6]. The Open Courseware Consortium was set up to increase the production and use of open courseware internationally. In terms of the user-base, open courseware is already an international phenomenon. More than 60% of visitors to MIT's courses are not from the US, and almost half are self-learners – individuals who are not currently enrolled in a degree programme or teaching [7]. The internationalization is also going multilingual, as proves the recent OpenCourseWare Universia project, formed by Spanish, Portuguese and Latin-American universities, which aims to provide a wider and more efficient access to free knowledge [8].
