About The Challenge

The MIT 24-Hour Challenge is a once-a-year chance for alumni, parents, students, and friends to rally in support of the MIT community. As part of the celebration, MIT Open Learning will have our own microchallenge!

Open Learning Microchallenge

Challenge Format

A generous alumni donor has made a gift of $20,000 to a fund supporting MIT Open Learning and challenges the MIT community to join him in giving during the 24-Hour Challenge, with a goal of at least 500 people donating to open learning initiatives.  

Every gift made to MITx, OpenCourseWare, and Open Learning on March 14 will count towards reaching our challenge goal and will directly support our mission to transform teaching and learning at MIT and around the world with innovative and accessible resources for today’s learners. 

About MIT Open Learning

Support the power of education to change lives 

In today’s world, education requires constant innovation to support teachers and learners amid the unique global challenges we face. From climate- and conflict-driven disruptions, the continuing impacts of a global pandemic, and deep-rooted inequities that have long created educational barriers for too many, the world needs creative learning solutions from education leaders like MIT.   

That’s why MIT Open Learning (OL) is on a mission to transform teaching and learning here at MIT and around the world through the innovative use of digital technologies to better equip learners of all ages to help solve the world’s great challenges.  

Your support helps OL invent new ways of sharing MIT courses online, design educational pathways to support underserved global learning communities and lifelong learners, and investigate teaching and learning best practices through critical research on learning effectiveness.   

The digital learning and research initiatives from MIT Open Learning keep education at MIT and around the world evolving for the 21st-century learner and beyond. Make your gift during this year’s MIT 24-Hour Challenge on March 14 to help us open learning.
