UC-Berkeley Course Videos
Posted on September 29, 2006 Comments (3)
Google offers a huge number of University of California, Berkeley course videos. They include full courses on subjects including:
- Physics for Future Presidents (with 26 lectures by Richard A. Muller including: Atoms and Heat; Gravity and Satellites; Radioactivity; and Electricity and Magnetism)
- Search Engines: Technology, Society and Business (including a lecture by Sergey Brin: Search, Google, and Life
- Electrical Engineering 213 / Applied Science & Technology 210 with 31 lectures on Soft X-Rays and Extreme Ultraviolet Radiation by David T. Attwood
Great stuff and hopefully much more to follow. A great example of open access education material. It is a bit surprising that it is not easier to navigate the videos to find what you might be interested in. The videos are not great quality (like all of Google Video) but the content is great. And it seems likely (hopefully) 5 years from now we will get great quality such videos from many schools.
They also include video lectures under the title: College of Engineering Presents and a conference: Synthetic Biology 2.0.

[…] The quality of the videos is great which is offset by the annoyance of having to download another plugin to view the videos. […]

“This course is all about understanding: understanding what’s going on inside your computer when you flip on the switch, why tech support has you constantly rebooting your computer…”
