麻省理工“开放式课程”计划更新日期：2004年九月
每月发行给麻省理工“开放式课程”计划的使用者及伙伴的电子报
----------------------------------------------------------------
麻省理工开放式课程电子报 2004年九月号内容：
1. 现在有900门课程上线了！
2. 美国有线电视网(CNN)对麻省理工开放式课程的报导
3. 深度探索：课程 15.040

1. 现在有900门课程上线了!
----------------------------------------------------------------
麻省理工开放式课程小组欣喜地宣布有超过200个新课程已经发布，现在在http://ocw.mit.edu上的课程总数有900门，准确地说是905门！这次的发布是非常重要的，它已经达到麻省理工学院公开表示目标的一半，在2008年以前完成1800门课程。
今天所发布的成果对那些在过去六个月中为麻省理工开放式课程工作的麻省理工学院图书馆、麻省理工学院各系所的主任，以及最重要的麻省理工学院卓越的教授们来说，代表着一个极富意义的里程碑，有超过一半的教授们—950位中的540位—已经自愿地加入麻省理工开放式课程，而我们也深知若没有教授们对学校使命的贡献以及藉由开放式课程开放分享教材的信任，这个整个计划将无以为继。
我们欣喜地请您注意这以下的新课程，当您在阅览麻省理工学院开放式课程 所有课程列表时，红色的NEW 就代表着是最近发布的课程。

2. 美国有线电视网(CNN)对麻省理工开放式课程的报导
----------------------------------------------------------------
如同在麻省理工开放式课程中的 评量结果 所显因为我们希望示，知道与使用麻省理工开放式课程的网站与媒体播放范围有直接的关联。因为我们希望有尽可能的让人们从所发布的教材中受惠，而我们也高兴在美国与海外，有媒体持续且非常正面的报导麻省理工开放式课程。
在接下来的四个星期中，麻省理工开放式课程将会在美国有线电视网国际频道( CNN International )中持续地进行至今最大的媒体报导，确定下个月在全世界的各个饭店与机场出现麻省理工开放式课程的报导。
这段关于麻省理工开放式课程的部份是由每月节目“全球挑战”(Gloable Challenges)，在9月12日、19日、26日以及10月3日、10日播出。 这6分钟关于麻省理工开放式课程的影像片段在上星期9月12日首播，而我们观察到在9月12及13日麻省理工开放式课程网站的流量出现了极富意义的尖峰讯号。这段节目也会于9月底在CNN美国频道的 Next@CNN 节目中预定播出。
3. 深度探索：课程 15.040
----------------------------------------------------------------
我们所做的何种选择会影响职场中的其他人？而职场中的其他人所做的何种选择会影响我们？听起来有点异想天开，这种情况像是赌局与参与赌局，在职场中是非常严肃的。经理人经常在公司内与公司外—与竞争对手、客户、管理者甚至是资本市场—参与赌局!
这就是 课程 15.040 – 2004年春季课程，经理人的博奕论的缘起， 麻省理工学院史隆管理学院大卫．麦克亚当(David McAdams)教授的研究所课程。在这课程中学生必须在互动式游戏中利用博奕论与同学或线上玩者竞争—包含 动态的价格游戏、 欺骗游戏与 愤怒的谈判游戏，如“ 游戏 ”的网页中所描述。
有三个小组 作业 提供了一组“建构交换债卷”问题，有一个撰写“策略备忘录”给公司经理人的作业，以及”真实世界的应用”。
大卫．麦克亚当(David McAdams)教授也提供完整的11个课程讲稿、丰富的阅读资料列表与
期末考古题及题解。
4. 一个常见问题
----------------------------------------------------------------
问：麻省理工开放式课程教材在那些使用方式是被允许的？
答：麻省理工学院开放式课程计划所隐含的意义是要让麻省理工学院课程所使用的教材能够免费且开放地提供其它人使用在非商业性的教育活动中。在麻省理工学院开放式课程中，麻省理工学院开放任何人使用这些资料，不管是以毫不修改或是进行改编皆可。我们不限制使用者如何修改资料来符合自己的需求。这些教材可以被编辑、翻译、和其它人的资料合并、改变格式或是以其他任何方法修改。不过，麻省理工学院开放式课程的使用者必须配合以下三项要求：
- 非商业化: 麻省理工学院开放式课程开放给任何人使用，但那些对使用这些教育资料收取费用的营利团体例外。
- 注明出处: 所有对于这些资料的使用或是重复利用，包括了改写都必须注明资料来自麻省理工学院，如果原始资料中有教员的名字，也必须注明出自该教员之手。
- 同样分享: 任何对麻省理工学院开放式课程原始资料或是改编内容的出版和散步，包括制作电子版、印刷成课堂讲印或是将这些教材置放在网页上，这些行为都必须符合麻省理工学院开放式课程开放这些资料给使用者的同样规范。

The MIT OpenCourseWare Update: September 2004
A Monthly E-mail Newsletter for Users
and Friends of MIT OpenCourseWare
----------------------------------------------------------------
The September 2004 MIT OpenCourseWare Update Contains:
1. 900 Courses Now Available!
2. MIT OCW Featured on CNN
3. Digging Deeper: Course 15.040
4. A Frequently Asked Question
1. 900 Courses Now Available
----------------------------------------------------------------
The MIT OpenCourseWare Team is pleased to announce that 200 more courses have been published to bring the total number of courses available at http://ocw.mit.edu to 900, 905 to be exact! This publication is very significant as it represents the halfway mark to MIT's publicly stated goal of 1800 courses published by 2008.
Today's publication represents a significant achievement for people across the Institute who worked with the MIT OCW Team over the last six months, including the MIT Libraries, MIT's department heads, and most importantly, MIT's remarkable faculty. More than half of MIT's faculty -- 540 of 950 -- have now voluntarily participated in MIT OCW, and we know that MIT OCW would not be succeeding were it not for the faculty's dedication to MIT's institutional mission and belief in the promise of openly sharing their materials through OpenCourseWare.
We are pleased to call your attention to the following new MIT courses. When looking at the complete MIT OCW Course List, look for the redNEW to indicate courses recently published:

2. MIT OCW Featured on CNN
----------------------------------------------------------------
As MIT OCW's evaluation findings have shown, awareness and use of the MIT OCW Web site directly correlates to media coverage. Because we want as many people as possible to benefit from the MIT faculty's materials that we publish, we are excited that MIT OCW continues to receive very positive media coverage, both here in the United States and abroad.
The biggest media exposure to date for MIT OCW will be a recurring appearance on CNN International over the course of the next four weeks, ensuring that MIT OCW will be appearing in every hotel and airport around the world for the next month!
The segment on MIT OCW is part of a monthly program called Global Challenges, set to air Sunday nights September 19 and 26, and October 3 and 10. The six-minute segment on MIT OCW premiered last Sunday, September 12, and we saw very significant spikes in traffic to the MIT OCW Web site on September 12 and 13. The segment will air on the United States version of CNN on the program Next@CNN on a yet-to-be-determined date.
3. Digging Deeper: Course 15.040
----------------------------------------------------------------
What are the choices that we make that affect others in the workplace, and what are the choices that others make that affect us? Such situations are known as "games" and game-playing, while it may sound whimsical, is serious business. Managers frequently play "games" both within the firm and outside it -- with competitors, customers, regulators, and even capital markets!
That is the premise of Course 15.040 -- Game Theory for Managers, Spring 2004, Professor David McAdams' graduate-level course from the MIT Sloan School of Management. MIT students in this course use game theory in the interactive games they play against each other both in class and online -- including the Dynamic Pricing Game, the Bluffing Game, and the Angry Negotiation Game, as described on the Games page.
The three team Assignments offer a problem set on "Structuring a Bond Swap," an assignment to write a "Strategy Memo" addressed to the corporate office manager, and a "Real-World Application."
Professor McAdams also offers a complete set of 11 Lecture Notes, a rich list of Readings, and a
Practice Final Exam, along with the Solutions.
4. A Frequently Asked Question
----------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION: What uses of MIT OCW materials are allowed?
ANSWER: The underlying purpose of MIT OCW is to make course materials used in MIT courses freely and openly available to others for non-commercial educational purposes. MIT grants the right to anyone to use the materials, either "as is," or in a modified form. There is no restriction on how a user can modify the materials -- they may be edited, translated, combined with someone else's materials, reformatted, or changed in any other way. However, there are three requirements that an MIT OCW user must meet to make use of the materials:
- Non-commercial: A commercial use would involve the assessment of a direct or indirect fee for use of the MIT OCW materials in order to derive a profit, or any derivation or modification of the MIT OCW material for the purposes of commercial exploitation.
- Attribution: Any and all use or reuse of the material, including use of derivative works (new materials that incorporate or draw on the original materials), must be attributed to MIT and, if a faculty member's name is associated with the material, to that person as well.
- Share alike (aka "copyleft"): Any publication or distribution of original or derivative works, including production of electronic or printed class materials or placement of materials on a Web site, must offer the works freely and openly to others under the same terms MIT OCW makes the works available to users.
