I was but one member of the team - but it's basically all MIT's courses for free online. Pretty cool stuff - great for home schoolers, inspired high schoolers, self learners etc. Only thing missing is a lot of the readings. A HUGE component of the project was rights management - in order to fully license everything under Creative Commons, we had to severely limit the readings we could directly make available and spent a lot of resources recreating photos and diagrams from scratch.
