By using edX – the e-learning platform founded by Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) – the faculties intend to transform classroom education in various institutions. Due to begin next spring, the project will offer individuals at the Bunker Hill Community College in Charlestown and MassBay Community College a modified version of edX’s Introduction to Computer Science and Programming class.
