Everyone's Favorite Physics Professor

At 71, Physics Professor Is a Web Star

By SARA RIMER [from NYTimes.com]

"Walter H. G. Lewin, a physics professor at M.I.T., has found devotees across the country with his online lectures." I'm not in a position to evaluate his PCK, but I think it's interesting, the concept that now everyone can have a great physics professor and not just the one their institution happens to employ. - Katie

I've watched his lectures, and they are very engaging.

Be sure to read the comments on the New York Times article, over 65 comments and counting. They range from people who took his class 20 years ago to people having watched his videos to people commenting about online education in general.
