This autumn more than a million students are going to take part in an experiment that could re-invent the landscape of higher education. Some of the biggest powerhouses in US higher education are designing courses that will be free for students online – testing how their expertise and scholarship can be brought to a global audience. Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have formed an alliance to launch edX – a platform for online courses. Stanford and Princeton are providing courses on the Coursera platform. Irina Khokhlova talks to the president of edX, Anant Agarwal and to the co-founder of Coursera, Andrew Ng.
