Connexions - Free scholarly materials

Connexions is a rapidly   growing collection of free scholarly materials and a powerful set of   free software tools to help

• authors publish and collaborate
• instructors rapidly build and share custom courses
• learners explore the links among concepts, courses, and disciplines.

Our Content Commons   contains small "knowledge chunks" we call modules   that connect into courses.   Thanks to a Creative Commons open license,   anyone can take our materials, adapt them to meet their needs, and   contribute them back to the Commons. And everyone is invited to   participate!

http://cnx.org is the homepage.
