Open Courseware Search

To expand a page or post a comment on it, click on the red-colored
heading in the white box or on 'read more'

The Category Browser allows searching across all Subjects, Media Type (Assignments, Exams, Software / Demonstrations, Audio, Video, Notes) and Academic Level (Introductory, Intermediate and Advanced) - e.g. 'all introductory physics OCW items with notes and video presentations'.

The quick search below and the Subject Index are not so comprehensive but they may be more convenient to use.

Quickly search the Open Courseware Directory

Click on one of the Main Subject Areas in the left column of the table below will give all OCW items for that subject area.

Clicking on one of the Media Type headings in the top row gives all OCW items with that Media Type.

Example: To find all OCW items containing videoed material (videoed lectures etc) click on 'Video'.

Otherwise, go to the square corresponding to the intersection of a main subject row with the required media type column - Click on ALL inside a square to find items at all academic levels or click on:

1 - for introductory (university first year undergraduate level - or equivalent)
2 - for intermediate (university undergraduate level but excluding first year - or equivalent)
3 - for advanced (university graduate level - or equivalent)

Example: To find OCW with exam material (sample exams, old papers etc) in introductory Social Sciences go to the bottom right hand corner and click on '1'.

Subject Index

This provides a quick way of locating the part of the Open Courseware Directory that covers a particular topic - it does not give an exclusive list of OCW items on that topic.
