edu: Stanford OpenEdX

About OpenEdX | Stanford Online:
"OpenEdX is the open-source release of the edX platform developed by the non-profit organization founded by Harvard and MIT. In April 2013 Stanford and edX agreed to collaborate on future development of the edX platform.
...
In September 2013, Google committed to the development of OpenEdX, and to offer a hosted version of the platform, so that organizations wanting to use it will not necessarily have to install an instance of the software themselves.
...
Stanford OpenEdX is one of three platforms VPOL currently supports for delivery of digital course content. The others are Coursera and NovoEd (formerly Venture Lab). Stanford University also offers online courses through the Stanford Center for Professional Development, and makes videos available through YouTube and iTunesU."
