Sharing U-M's expertise online

At least seven U-M professors will be offering free online courses on topics such as finance, electronic voting, computer vision, and fantasy and science fiction using a new web-based platform called Coursera. U-M plans to make web-based courses available at no cost through the coursera.org website along with Princeton University, the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford.
