I was on YouTube doing a search on World War 1 battles and one of the channels that popped up was YaleCourses, under the subject "War in the Trenches." This was lecture 17 of 24 in Yale University history class 202, European Civilization, 1648-1945. Under the video was the link: complete course materials are available at the Open Yale Courses website: http://open.yale.edu/courses There are 20 departments listed with at least one course per department. The History department is represented with 6 courses. I'm going with the idea that the majority of us have at least a passing interest in history as part of our genealogy research. These classes can be viewed on YouTube under YaleCourses, or at the Yale edu website. HIST 116 The American Revolution HIST 119 The Civil War and Reconstruction HIST 202 European Civilization, 1648-1945 HIST 234 Epidemics and Western Society Since 1600 HIST 251 Early Modern England ... under the Tudors and Stuarts HIST 276 France Since 1871 Click on any class heading and under each individual class is a download section, which will allow you to watch or download each lecture as a QT (QuickTime) movie or mp3 file. According to their website, tuition is $40,500 a year, and we've been given the opportunity to audit these classes for free. There may be other universities that also offer these educational opportunities, but Yale is the first one I've come across.
