感谢lichgo的投递 早上收到邮件（邮件正文如下），Coursera开放了更多美国名校 （Princeton, Stanford, UMich, Penn）在线课程，涵盖了Computer Science, the Humanities, Medicine, Biology, Social Sciences, Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, Finance等学科。 Coursera的课程不同于网上流传的那些公开课，Coursera有班级、作业、考试，最后还会给你一张证书。之前了解Coursera是因为在校长的同学chenyufei的博客上看到他拿到了AI课的“毕业证书”。那时看Coursera好像主要是伯克利和斯坦福的课程，而且基本上是计算机科学的课，并没有其他学科的。之前注册了斯坦福Andrew Ng的Machine Leanring，下周一终于要正式开始了。 除开Machine Learning，还有其他5门课也在下周一(23/04/2012)就要开始了，包括： Automata Compilers Computer Science 101 Computer Vision: The Fundamentals Introduction to Logic 以下是邮件全文： New Courses from Princeton, Stanford, UMich, Penn Dear {name}, We are excited to announce that Coursera is partnering with Princeton, Stanford, the University of Michigan, and the University of Pennsylvania to offer additional online courses.
