MIT’s been part of online learning communities for some time. They were
a founding member (IIRC) of the Open CourseWare project, which actually
Novell has had some involvement in as well over the years.
Though Novell’s involvement hasn’t been to the extent of online free
courses (which actually Stanford University has been doing - my son has
been taking C programming courses through them over the past year).
But there’s been a huge uptick in online learning. Technology enables a
lot of new ways of looking at how people learn, and the model that’s been
in use since the 1200s is finally being revamped.

I’m learning Spanish online via Duolingo, and finding it
a rather good method. Whatever it is, it’s working so far. : )

You’re doing 6.002x too? How are you getting on? I’m quite enjoying
it, although it has highlighted in places how rusty my maths has become
since I haven’t needed to use much of it for a decade or so

I am at 57% currently. I got lucky in the midterm and scored 100%, but I
definitely find the math challenging.
I always liked math, but was always much too lazy to commit stuff like
the various rules, ie what is the integral of cos or derivative of tan,
Eulers rule and all that. To boot, it has been 30+ years since I last
battled with Mr Laplace.
OTOH do I have an BsC EE and have been playing with electronics since I
was 7 so it helps. As professor AA says: “intuitive”

Yes, you need to refresh your languages. My German is pretty horrid.
But I try to read and listen when I can. Currently studying Spanish…[/color]
Italian and French here.m joe and I are working on our Italian, and James
is learning French in High School, so I’m brushing up with him (I had 4
years High School French and 1 year college French, but am not very good
after 30 years).

Ah, I’m managing to maintain 100% at the moment, but I expect the final
will change that. The midterm was great fun! Found one of the recent
weeks with a pair of monster lecture sequences a bit difficult to fit
in around work and other commitments, though

I’d forgotten an awful lot – even elementary algebraic manipulation, I
kept having to pause videos even in the first few weeks to make sure I
was following – but thankfully it came back quickly. Enough so that
the ‘sneaky trick’ with the complex algebra in the sinusodial steady
state sequence suggested itself to me before Prof. Agarwal did, which
was a pleasant surprise!

Ah, yes, that will certainly help I did a little playing around
when I was a lad but haven’t really touched it for a long time; only in
the last year or so when I decided to have a little fun and basically
started from scratch. Now I seem to buying random bits of test gear
for my workbench as retail therapy, oh dear…

Yes. I have forgotten a lot, but things you once have learned tend to
come back when you read up on it. I did the Week 10 lab yesterday
