The first MITx class launched today. I enrolled for the fun of it; looks promising. Curious to see how they work labs into this class via DL. MITx: MIT's new online learning initiative
I enrolled in the first course, "Circuits and Electronics", as well. I consider myself to have a good understanding of electronics, but I'm already learning new things from the MIT course. By the way, I also completed the Stanford AI Class last year. I got an overall score of 84%, which was actually in the bottom 50% of the 20,000 or so students who completed all the exams. But, during the course something like 140,000 students dropped out, so I think I really did well overall.
