MIT and High School Courses


MIT is now offering courseware for High School students and the cost...free! Highlights for High School provides students with coursework to help with AP classes, video demonstrations, lab experiments, competitions and more.

Highlights for High School is the latest addition to the Opencourseware that MIT has been providing for over 6 years. While this new endeavor focuses the magnifying glass on processes and content to help high school students and teachers, it is not the first time that MIT has provided assisstance. Dating as far back as 1956 when MIT professors collaborated with high school physics teachers to help define the best approach to teaching introductory physics or when in 1957 MIT students committed to working with middle and high school students, which is still active today.
