I just signed up for two online college courses for free. And I get a certificate of completion when the courses are finished! The first is “Fundamentals of Human Nutrition” taught by a professor at Florida University.
The second is “Listening to World Music” taught by a professor of Music at University of Pennsylvania.
There are lots of free courses for anyone of any age to take and all are taught by some pretty amazing people from top universities. Here’s the website: www.coursera.org

We envision a future where the top universities are educating not only thousands of students, but millions.

I am so excited to take these courses. I just had to share!
Love, Annie
