Possibly interesting Coursera offering

[RobA]

Cool! I'm glad some others here are going to do this. I'm signing up for it too. I may not be able to finish it either because I may not have the time to keep up, but I'm going to give it a try.

I'm in.

I'm signed up.

[bcalla]

I'm in, too.

Same here, signed up. Most of it will probably be over my head.

This is exactly the type of class I've been looking for! Can't wait!

I signed up yesterday, but forgot to say anything until I saw this thread again.

Funny, I had a student ask me to award credit in this course as an independent study. My college hasn't sorted out a way to ethically do that, but I want to take the course for my own benefit. There was a related course in Processing that looked interesting too.

FWIW, there are usually Coursera offerings in math that might help with this course--but the description seems a broad enough survey that you could googlecheat your way through the hard parts. The stakes are low, especially compared to the benefits.

I'm signed up as well. My math skills are pretty sad but I've started using these online classes to bring them back up to speed. http://www.khanacademy.org/
Free as well.

I'll start a little forum sub-section for the course. We can have discussions on the material, pose questions, etc. I would not worry too much about any maths. While I've forgotten probably 90% of whatever I learned earning my college math degree, I can at least point anyone in the right direction when it comes to problem solving. I'm sure there are a few others here that can help in that regard...this is a pretty smarty pants group (in a good way).

Do you think there will be a problem if I skip the first week or if I could see the videos later? I finish my exams on Feb 7th...
