AT&T Tech Support 360UC Berkeley first to post full lectures to YouTube
YouTube is now an important teaching tool at UC Berkeley.
The school announced on Wednesday that it has begun posting entire course lectures on the Web's No.1 video-sharing site.
Berkeley officials claimed in a statement that the university is the first to make full course lectures available on YouTube. The school said that over 300 hours of videotaped courses will be available at youtube.com/ucberkeley.
Berkeley said it will continue to expand the offering. The topics of study found on YouTube included chemistry, physics, biology and even a lecture on search-engine technology given in 2005 by Google cofounder Sergey Brin.
"UC Berkeley on YouTube will provide a public window into university life, academics, events and athletics, which will build on our rich tradition of open educational content for the larger community," said Christina Maslach, UC Berkeley's vice provost for undergraduate education in a statement.

specifies. Is this an exception for UC Berkley or are there YouTube
accounts that allow for longer clips?
I think it's great that they are putting them on YouTube - just
curious how they are getting around the file size/clip length issue.

we have Berkeley's own Nobel prize winner Gerard Debreu
giving 8 hours of lectures in mathematical economics (from a
grad lecture series presented in 1987), so we do a little more
than game theory. Math Econ is not everyone's cup of tea to be
sure...but hey, thats why the philosophy of posting university
educational material for public access is so damn cool.
Well done Berkeley !!
We here down under at the University of Canterbury in
Christchurch New Zealand, are doing our bit. So NZ isn't just a
home for hobbits wizards and wraiths from Lord of the Rings.

The video archive will include more and more video lectures from the last 10 years. In September the Romanian newspaper Cotidianul even wrote an entire article about the lectures from the European Graduate School. Thank you for waking up ...
Lets send a friendly message to UC Berkeley: "If you think education (and research) is expensive - Try Ignorance ..."

Long term, it seems google will continue to grow monetization strategies around youtube which may be problematic for some users, including UC
