από coursera, ποια ''μαθήματα'' προτείνετε? (γνκ όλων των ειδών)
γτ λέω να αρχίσω να ρίχνω καμία ματιά και σε αυτά..

καθαρά προσωπική επιλογή. δεν μπορώ να σου πω. αν μου πεις γνωστικό αντικείμενο ίσως μπορώ να βοηθήσω. και γενικά έχει πολλά αντικείμενα και λογικές διδασκαλίας.

αυτό θέλω να πω με την παρένθεση.
ποιο προτείνεις εσύ που έχεις παρακολουθήσει, βασισμένος σε κάποιον συγκεκριμένο λόγο.

πχ. το ένα σου έμαθε πώς να κάνεις το αυτό, ή το άλλο σου έδειξε για το εκείνο σκιλλ που πιστεύεις ότι θα σου φανεί χρήσιμο στο μέλλον.

γενικά υπάρχουν πάρα πολλά πράγματα και μαθήματα. πάντως αν το κάνεις καθαρά κυνικά για να αποκτήσεις κάποιες δεξιότητες δεν νομίζω να μπορείς να το τελειώσεις με καλά αποτελέσματα, δεδομένου και του φόρτου εργασίας μας.

πάντως αυτό που μπορώ να πω με σιγουριά ότι στις περιγραφές των μαθημάτων είναι αρκετά έντιμοι και αυτό που περιμένεις είναι σε μεγάλο ποσοστό αυτό που παίρνεις. δες γενικά τις κατηγορίες και μετά ό,τι σου αρέσει σαν τίτλος και μετά τις περιγραφές, ο πιο απλός και ο πιο καλός τρόπος.

και λίγο πιο ειδικά κάτι πρόχειρο που μου έρχεται στο μυαλό σαν σκιλλ προτείνω είναι αυτό με τον παράλληλο προγραμματισμό.

Αν δε ξερεις τι θελεις το κανενα ή ολα. Στο τριτο ετος θα πρεπει να εχεις καποια πρωτη εικονα του τι σε ενδιαφερει.

Αν δε ξερεις τι θελεις το κανενα ή ολα. Στο τριτο ετος θα πρεπει να εχεις καποια πρωτη εικονα του τι σε ενδιαφερει.

το θέμα είναι ότι δεν έχει κάτι που να τον τρελαίνει και έτσι αναγκάζεται να τα βλέπει όλα σαν δεύτερες επιλογές.

Dear Kuchiki Byakuya,

Happy January! Here’s to a new year of learning and broadening access to education!
Pathway Towards US College Credit
To start off the New Year right, we just launched a pilot program that makes U.S. college credit possible with some MOOCs. As Sebastian Thrun announced in his blog post: “Udacity is thrilled to announce a partnership with San Jose State University to pilot three courses—Visualizing Intermediate Algebra, College Algebra, and Elementary Statistics—available online at an affordable tuition rate and for college credit. To my knowledge, this is the first time a MOOC has been offered for credit and purely online.” To see the play by play, check out our Storify page on this announcement.
These credits are accepted in the California State University system, and in the case of Statistics, in the University of California system as well. All three courses launch January 30th for the pilot period and are open for enrollment. Please note, as this is a pilot, in order to receive credit, you will have to enroll via San Jose State University first to be accepted into the pilot classes. Of course you can always take the classes for free (but not for college credit) by enrolling directly on Udacity.
ACE Partnership
On the subject of credit, we’re also working with ACE on a collaboration to explore college credit recommendations for some of our courses as well as a separate research initiative to look at impact and students served. This is all a part of wide-ranging research and evaluation effort to examine the academic potential of MOOCs and we’re pumped to be a part of it.
Good News for Intro to Parallel Programming Course
We are very excited to announce that Amazon Web Services will provide on-demand access to GPU compute instances on Amazon EC2 to qualifying students taking our Intro to Parallel Programming course. While using EC2 is not required to complete the course, it's a great option for students who want to experiment further with parallel and distributed computing on CUDA GPUs. The first 5000 students who complete Unit 1 (including assignments) will be provided with promotional credits for 15 hours of GPU instances. The first 1000 students who complete all units and assignments up through Unit 7 will be awarded promotional credits for a further 15 hours of GPU instances. This offer runs from February 4th to May 30th and some additional terms apply. Enroll in the course and you'll get all the details.
Crunchies

And last but not least, thank you for all your help in getting us nominated for a 2012 Crunchie! Now that we’re on the ballot please help us win Crunchies for Best Education Startup. One vote per person per day is allowed. Vote here! The last day to vote is January 24th. (Note, it may be confusing, but click “share” to vote.)
We’re looking forward to more exciting courses to announce soon and new learning events this year.

Be Udacious!

Dear Koutsiki Byakuya,

Thanks for enrolling in my course, Analytic Combinatorics, Part I. I'm excited to let you know that the course will get started on February 8, 2013, and will run for five weeks. You can review the Syllabus and Schedule to see what's coming. I'll also send weekly announcements summarizing what's to happen each week.

The video is now available on the course website. It is an optional overview that tries to answer the question "What is Analytic Combinatorics" and to give some historical perspective. If you are completely new to the material, you might wish to skip this video or come back to it later on. Most of it is covered, at a much slower pace, later in the course.

The course is based on a variety of materials:

• The lecture videos and lecture slides.

• The textbook, An Introduction to the Analysis of Algorithms, 2nd edition, is our basic reference. Although the lectures are designed to be self-contained, the textbook provides thorough coverage of the material. Addison-Wesley is offering Coursera students a 35% discount when purchased from Inform IT. To receive the discount, enter the code COURSERA during checkout.

• The booksite, which is open to everyone and contains a wealth of supplementary information, including synopses of the textbook, answers to some exercises, code, and other resources.

• Selected exercises from the textbook, which are also released each week in the lecture slides, the booksite and the Coursera site. These are for self-assessment and to focus discussion in the forums.

• Optional experiments, usually introduced in the lecture slides and also released each week in the booksite and the Coursera site. Again, these are for self-assessment and to focus discussion in the forums.

To maximize your learning outcome in this course, you should get in the mindset of being an active participant who solves problems, studies the available resources, and engages in the discussion forums, as opposed to a passive participant who just watches the lectures. I don't plan any online assessments, but expect that the forums will provide some help for people who have trouble completing the assignments.

Best of luck,
RS
