“The power-searching course was a physically powerful achievement and also generated some expertise that we thought would be functional to share with the world,” says Norvig. “We feel that by sharing the code that we’ve generated, we can impact more people in the education space. There is a lot of experimentation going on in the industry at this point, and we felt that contributing an open source project would be a beneficial starting point that could help everyone.” The benefit of this Google project is that live code is available online straight away. No need to grade the papers to avail the benefits.  Another aid is that Google Course Builder now being made available as an open source project.
