Facebook and edX are teaming up to see if online education works in a new pilot program.  The new initiative will provide students in Rawnada wth free aces of eduation.  The program will be under he umbrella of Internet.org, a program bringing the internet to two-thirds of teh world now living without it.

The platform developed by Harvard and MIT will allow students to ask questions, interact with teachers, participate in group discussions and engage with their peers. What’s more, the Rwandan government will work with edX to adapt the course materials, thereby creating more locally-relevant content, as well as expand its free Wi-Fi in campuses throughout the East African country.
