This may have started after the success of open source Linux project, MIT offering courses OpenCourseWare (http://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm).   Then  Academic Earth (http://www.academicearth.org), Khan Academy(http://www.khanacademy.org), Udacity (http://www.udacity.com) started to offer  courses and tutorials.  Now Harvard and MIT are collaborating to start edX  (http://www.edxonline.org).
