Do you know what a MOOC is?  Massive Open Online Course.  It is a way to open up education to anyone because it is accessible to anyone with an internet connection and it is free!  This link brings you to 4 of the most popular destinations for MOOCs, Harvard, Yale, MIT and I-Tunes University.

A big thank you to Melissa and Danielle for having the Musical perform a couple of songs before the parents and the school board on Monday Night.  I can't wait to see the whole thing a week from today.  

Do you want to develop speaking and listening skills or just listen to some of the most famous speeches of all time...the site is a little hard to maneuver, however there is text, audio, and video archives.  There is also a special section for movie speeches.
