History

The idea behind Academic Earth came to Ludlow on stumbling on a full video course from MIT Mathematics Professor Gilbert Strang. Doing further research, he found out that there are various academic resources on-line but these resources were scattered across different websites and in varying file formats. Patterned after Hulu , Academic Earth. [2]

On January 10, 2012, it was announced that Academic Earth has been acquired by Ampush . [5]
