| EdX take over shows flaws in no-profit model Beware false profits The sale of the non-profit edX to 2U is causing a few headaches for those who supported the software. edX was founded by Harvard University and MIT a decade ago as a nonprofit alternative to for-profit online education providers. There was some fear when the company was sold in June. In the end, 2U bought a giant source of leads for students that it can upsell graduate degrees to from its partner colleges. But turning edX into a marketing vehicle is a far cry from the what was said when the nonprofit was founded to bring education to underserved students around the world. https://fudzilla.com/news/53562-edx-...o-profit-model |
