Maybe it would be worth to have a single summary thread for Coursera (and also other source like Udacity etc.) material. At some future point when the courses are on-line and enough people seen them we could work out a “LW curiculum”. Here is my subjective list of particularly intersting courses for LW audience:
A Beginner’s Guide to Irrational Behavior Artificial Intelligence Planning Automata Basic Behavioral Neurology Computer Science 101 Clinical Problem Solving Critical Thinking in Global Challenges Data Analysis Fantasy and Science Fiction: The Human Mind, Our Modern World Game Theory Human-Computer Interaction Introduction to Genetics and Evolution Introduction to Genome Science Introduction to Mathematical Thinking Machine Learning Microeconomics Principles Model Thinking Nanotechnology: The Basics Networked Life Networks: Friends, Money, and Bytes Neural Networks for Machine Learning Neuroethics Principles of Economics for Scientists Probabilistic Graphical Models Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Computation Rationing and Allocating Scarce Medical Resources Statistics One Think Again: How to Reason and Argue
Please note I haven’t picked any programming/algorithm courses—there seem to be quite a lot of nice ones. Subscribe here. Plain text list (111 courses):
