New instructors reduce preparation time and improve their
lectures, as they can employ state of the art lectures from others. Owing to
most Faculties in developing countries have access to current scientific
information which they would not normally have. The concept of a library of
lectures for all to use is in many ways similar to that of "freeware"
or "open
source software" on the computer which means one can easily pick
out a lecture and customize its contents based on his educational needs
without having to worry about accusation of piracy because of the
copyright. This unlimited access to information leads to proliferation
of knowledge and motivates more effective and active sharing of that among
scientists all over the world. |
