I decided to spend my free time more responsibly this vacation. So under Vipin sir’s suggestion I tried out MIT’s OCW and found it to be quite interesting. I’m presently doing “Introduction to Computer Science and Programming“. I suggest you all check it out and give it a try. This is a first year course in MIT. I think it would build a strong base in Computer Science. Going through the syllabus I found that they are learning much more than we are. May be this is what sets them apart from us. The course consists of video lectures, assignments(without solutions) and exams(with solutions).
Not all of you might find it as interesting as I did. But don’t give up yet. I’m sure that they have something for everyone. They offer courses relating to almost all streams. Check out the courses from various streams available at MIT OCW Courses.
I’m sure all of you might have heard of MIT. For those of you haven’t heard of it. MIT stands for Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Its one of the worlds top universities. MIT has given rise to 76 Nobel laureates. MIT OCW is an opportunity to learn the best courses from the best. Hope you try it and find the course meant for you.
