Thanks, I've been looking for a source/tutorial for intro to User Interface design.

 

[Kenny0829]

Thanks

 

[Miramonti]

Most of the ones I looked out require textbooks, altho even without them they are great for exploring subjects.

 

[Aquila76]

This is incredible! Even if you can't find the books they refer to, this is a great way to broaden out or expand existing knowledge. Great resource, thanks!

 

[osiris3mc]

Thanks OP, this is really cool. I'd definitely consider this a hot deal!

 

[StormRider]

I just wish I had the time and energy to take those couses as a refresher (and maybe finally understand some things that I had trouble with as an undergrad in UMD).

One possible negative. Some of the courses require real player to be installed.

I can confirm it works fine with real alternative.

OCW is permanent. If anything, MIT will expand it further in the future. There are several offices/staff at MIT dedicated maintaining, updating, and expanding the OCW system. It can even be found in some foreign languages.

Additionally, you might want to visit our student course listing. There are actually some courses on OCW that aren't "officially" listed, but if you search for them in the search bar, they'll show up

Lastly, if you find a course that is really interesting, search web.mit.edu for the homepage; there's usually more material there too. Most homepages are set up like this: web.mit.edu/course#/www

For example, if you care about 6.041 (I don't, lol), you do: web.mit.edu/6.041/www

Edit: oh yeah, one more thing: You can also try exploring stellar.mit.edu. Many of the courses there require to to actually be currently enrolled in the class to view the material, but some are open to everyone.

Thanks, I just saved all the ODE lectures and notes. The lectures took 4 CDs.

Need to brush up on it before I hit grad school!
