Wow, oh wow! Another gem discovered! Academic Earth--free online lectures.


Recommended Posts

While I have yet to watch any of the lectures, I feel compelled to share this link. I noticed there are lectures on Plato's Republic, The Prince, Newtonian Mechanics, Fourier Transforms, the American Civil War, etc. All a click away, folks.

 

Enjoy!

Wow, Jane! This looks like a fantastic resource---like having one of The Teaching Company courses at your fingertips, for free. From what I could tell, each of the lectures was given a grade (A, A-, B+, etc.) by viewers. Also, the professors are from top-notch universities---several from MIT, Yale, etc. Great resource! I look forward to watching some of them, and I think I'll pass these along to my father, who would thoroughly enjoy them.

 

This is what those rep. points were for!

Jane,

 

Thank you so much for posting this--what an excellent resource. I just watched part of Kagan's first lecture in Introduction to Greek History and am looking forward to exploring other lectures.

 

I wanted to share that, at least for most of the courses, the "related resources" link (right side of the course's first page) provides the syllabus, reading list/textbook, etc.
