The Stanford Education Experiment Could Change Higher Learning Forever | Wired Science | Wired.com
It seems like the model holds together and the interest from around the world is looking more than promising.

People around the world have gone crazy for this opportunity. Fully two-thirds of my 160,000 classmates live outside the US. There are students in 190 countries—from India and South Korea to New Zealand and the Republic of Azerbaijan. More than 100 volunteers have signed up to translate the lectures into 44 languages, including Bengali. In Iran, where YouTube is blocked, one student cloned the CS221 class website and—with the professors’ permission—began reposting the video files for 1,000 students.

This experiment will definitely be regarded as the starting shot of the revolution transforming higher education.
