Ask HN: MOOCs taken in 2012, planned for 2013

3 pointsby lazydonover 12 years ago
2012 shall be hailed as the year of the MOOCs. Just wanted to check what fellow HNers were upto in 2012 and what are their plans for self-education via MOOCs in 2013.<p>Here's my modest little list:<p>Done in 2012: 1. Sebastian Thrun's ST101: Introduction to Statistics @ Udacity 2. Martin Odersky's Functional Programming Principles in Scala @Coursera 3. Few Sal Khan's videos on finance and economics @Khan Academy<p>Enrolled (so far) for 2013 with Coursera: 1. Game Theory (starts on Jan 7th) 2. Financial Engineering and Risk Management (Feb)

2011 - first ML course with Professor Andrew Ng @ coursera (octave)<p>2012 - First Stat 1 Professor Conway @ coursera (R)<p>2013 -<p>Computational Methods for Data Analysis @ coursera (R) or Data analysis (R)<p>NLP @ Coursera (hoping python)<p>Computer Vision @ Coursera (octave [hopeful for python])<p>Fundamentals of Personal Financial Planning (I think I'm going to just enroll in it and download the video, I don't think I can keep up with this if I take the other courses)<p>It's a lot and I might end up taking like 2 courses out of those listed but I can dl the rest and wait for when time free up.
