Good, free stuff!

Kewl. Seems like they have put up a fair bit of the course material.

Excellent...it looks fairly comprehensive too (can't understand why the brain and cognitive sciences course doesn't include any research methods though).

 

I had a look at some of the modules within that course. The reading list on one of them is...interesting.

Text

"If it ain't busted, don't fix it." This is generally good advice, and the 2002 edition of 9.68 will begin as its predecessors have been doing for almost two decades: with all the participants devoting several weeks to reading (perhaps many re-reading) and discussing a book whose subtitle identifies it as An Inquiry into Values. The book is Robert M. Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, William Morrow and Co., 1974.

 

Cool!
