Jimmy Wales (of Wikipedia fame) is doing a guest stint at lessig blog while Lawrence Lessig is away. He’s making a top ten list of things that will be free someday and puts a free curriculum on the list at #2.

I’m not sure why there would be just one free curriculum. It’s not like teachers do all their curriculum shopping in one place anyway. Rather than a master repository somewhere, it seems much more likely that teachers will continue to look all around for the best materials available. Making it easier to find those materials sounds like a worthy goal to me.
