THE PROBLEMS WITH FANFICTION
I wanted to forward some great free learning opportunities on. Stanford’s offering a number of full semester Computer Science courses online for free. You can take a Stanford (or Berkley) class for free. You won’t get credit, but the key is to knowing this stuff anyways.
You can learn more about the course each professor will be teaching from the first link (if you click on the source or here) which will take you to an interview with the professor. Just scroll down the page and there are links at the bottom to the many other free courses Stanford will be offering.Each of the links has a quick video from the teacher(s) that will be leading the course that explains the content. It seems to me there is something here for all our interests and expertise levels. Most of the start up dates for the classes are toward the end of January or beginning of February. Only a couple are slated for Jan 23rd/24th to begin. I actually signed up for a few myself.
Anyways, i thought you’d appreciate the free learning. And if computer science isn’t your thing, OpenCulture has over 400 free online courses from top universities. Theres literally everything offered of all varieties. They just put in “The Elements of Drawing” with video instructions from Oxford University. I’m taking a lot of these now just to keep my brain refreshed. A lot of new courses offered though, it used to be only 200.
Happy learning! (Stanford computer science | openculture)
