This.

Is.

Awesome.

A world class education, for free.  You couldn't hope for anything better than this.  Anything MIT does, you can download course material and learn until your heart is content.  Anything from Aeronautics to Writing.

Quick, turn it off and run a magnet along the hard drive maybe the men in dark suits will go easy on you if you don't do it again.

It would be infinitely easy to become a polyglot if you simply read, understand and remember the stuff posted here.

It's at times like these, when such wonderful material is right before me, that I wish I had highspeed instead of dail-up.
Title: Re: The MIT OpenCourseWare
Post by: Cain on October 13, 2008, 04:28:11 PM
Number one reason to go to University is for incredible download speeds.  I should have bought an extra hard drive when I was studying.
Title: Re: The MIT OpenCourseWare
Post by: Ylva on October 13, 2008, 04:52:31 PM
I should have highspeed right now, but for some strange reason the company (don't know what company it is) is taking it's precious time, but we are on "The List." I plan on making some phone calls to these people...  :evilmad:

Anyway, I'm going to download the "21H.001 How to Stage a Revolution Fall 2007" and see what I think of it. It will take an hour or two, but it should be worth it. Then I can put it on my laptop of awesomeness and read it during my free time at school.... finally, I'll be learning something.

Hello forum.
There is also a substantial amount of UC Berkeley's course catalog available on the internet.
It can be found here: http://webcast.berkeley.edu/ (http://webcast.berkeley.edu/)
This is a course that I believe many Discordian minded individuals will enjoy.  Psych 119: Drugs and Behavior (http://webcast.berkeley.edu/course_details.php?seriesid=1906978365)
QuotePsych 119: Drugs and the Brain - Fall 2006. A survey course exploring the basic principles of psychopharmacology. The major focus of the course is on the relationship between behavior and the physiological actions of drugs. Emphasis will be placed on effects of pharmacological agents on complex mental processes such as attention, motivation, learning, and memory.

Hope that you enjoy.

It's not all of their work, but there's a massive push for that end :cheers:

If only they'd release their archives of declassified documents. They buy them in bulk and give their students access to a huge searchable database.

Stanford uni are doing a free introduction to AI course online: http://www.ai-class.com/

Apparently you sign up, watch the videos, do the assignments, and then get a certificate at the end. Says you need a solid understanding of probability and linear algebra.

This isn't MIT, but it's all the materials for an upper division course on investments via PSU's School of Business Administration. There's a fuckload of interesting PDFs such as: "Collateralized Debt Obligations" and "Wall Street After Dark" and "Suspicious Trading in Mergers" and "Going Too Far".
