Video: Academic Lectures available on Academic Earth

Academic Earth is an online repository for videotaped lectures presented by leading academics. Lectures are organized by lecturer, university, subject, and theme.

Previously, such filmed lectures would be accessible only through a portal like I-Tunes University. The advantage of Academic Earth is that it doesn't require the user to download a program like I-Tunes--which is an issue for online instructors who don't wish to require students to install I-Tunes on their home computers as well as for instructors working in computer labs where I-Tunes is not installed.

The site is available at http://www.academicearth.org/
