In the spirit of encouraging the pursuit of lifelong learning, we are asking you to take a look at some sites that provide university level educational materials free to the public. These online resources can supply extra study materials to assist you in courses at CSU East Bay as well as help you learn about new subjects once you graduate.There are two options for this assignment. One is to take a look at OpenCourseWare at MIT. The other requires that you have the program iTunes loaded on your computer so that you can explore iTunesU. Hopefully, in the near future, CSUEB will be joining the ranks of those schools providing lectures and other materials on iTunesU.
Directions:
1. Go to one of the following: iTunesU at Berkeley OR MIT OpenCourseWare (in order to pick iTunes U, you must have iTunes installed on your computer)
2. Pick a subject and then a course within that subject.
3. Check out the materials available, listen to part of a podcast or lecture, and/or read some lecture notes/handouts.
4. Post the following to your blog:
- Name of the course and course instructor
- Two new things you learned about the subject matter covered in the course
Blog post due: Monday, February 19th by 9pm.
