In case you’ve missed it, the free ai class @ stanford is about to start
nice! Thanks for that link.
I had missed it, thanks for the heads up! Got registered and now I’m excited for it.
This looks fantastic, thanks for the heads up! I’m jumping in headfirst and enrolled myself in the advanced track. Let’s see how long I survive it before dropping down to the basic track…
There are also 2 other courses.
Databases are incredibly prevalent – they underlie technology used by most people every day if not every hour. Databases reside behind a huge fraction of websites; they’re a crucial component of telecommunications systems, banking systems, video games, and just about any other software system or electronic device that maintains some amount of persistent information. In addition to persistence, database systems provide a number of other properties that make them exceptionally useful and convenient: reliability, efficiency, scalability, concurrency control, data abstractions, and high-level query languages. Databases are so ubiquitous and important that computer science graduates frequently cite their database class as the one most useful to them in their industry or graduate-school careers.
A bold experiment in distributed education, “Machine Learning” will be offered free and online to students worldwide during the fall of 2011. Students will have access to lecture videos, lecture notes, receive regular feedback on progress, and receive answers to questions. When you successfully complete the class, you will also receive a statement of accomplishment. Taught by Professor Andrew Ng, the curriculum draws from Stanford’s popular Machine Learning course.
Lots of cool stuff.
There is a ton of free open-courseware on Itunes (videos/lectures, not per se course you take while it’s being recorded like the above), lots of coding/computer science/engineering courses, I have about 25gb of it on my Ipod Touch.

There’s also several courses on Iphone development with Objective-C.:nod:
Gonna be doing the database course. Might follow the AI course but think its going to be way too much for me.
