Open Courses at Yale University

I wish Egyptian universities (especially the older ones) have open courses on their webpages similar to those at Yale:

This way students at other smaller universities could see and learn what is going on in the major universities.

Of course this is too much work and I do not wish for all the courses to be online but at least few of them.

Why? You ask?

Imagine a young man in Somalia with an internet connection and a hope for a better future. What a better gift you can give him than Arabic-based Lectures series from Cairo University at his figner tips!

Let us start now. Let start the educational revolution of the Arab world.
