As we all know MIT, Stanford, Harvard, Yale and other top institutes have put most of their educational materials online if not all. It is one of the most awesome gift from all these colleges to the world. All these while, most of the material was scattered around in different websites and was tough to go through. Academic Earth aggregates all the courses and lectures into one single website and makes it easier for people to learn with links to syllabus, practice exams etc. There are wide variety of subjects ranging for Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics and more. I think more subjects and lectures will be added soon to the site and I am hoping the site adds more social features like discussion about particular lecture and more interaction with other users which in-turn makes learning collaborative. I am currently following the Computer Science I: Programming Methodology by Mehran Sahami. I will continue to blog as I learn, hope to make it easier for people reading here.
