MIT OpenCourseWare for brain and cognitive science

Filed under: cogsci, psych, brain - alexei @ 2:06 am

MIT has a free open educational resource, the OpenCourseWare (OCW), where it shares reading lists, lecture notes and problem sets, for many of its undergraduate and graduate courses from an array of disciplines including ‘Brain and Cognitive Science’, ‘Linguistics and Philosophy’, and ‘Science, Technology, and Society.’ Susan Hockfield, MIT’s president, believes the OCW "expresses in an immediate and far-reaching way MIT’s goal of advancing education around the world." Word, I could read this site for weeks, it’s an invaluable resource and I’m beaming I found it. A few of the many available course materials are:

Animal Behavior
Human Memory and Learning
Cognitive and Behavioral Genetics
Language and Thought
Mind and Machines
Cultural History of Technology
Drugs, Politics, and Culture
