Open Lectures for Math Geeks

An unholy mixture of pre-high-school math and graduate specialist seminars. Some good stuff in there, by chance.

And did they seriously call Markov Chain Monte Carlo a card game? That didn't sound like they were joking.

Thanks for the link. I was a business major in school (gasp) so I missed out on a lot of math. I find things like this really helpful even if they are not super high level.

Just out of curiosity, why is it that "Open University" videos are available only on iTunes? I don't see how making me download and run that bloated and closed platform is very open.

I sent this over to a friend who was an Applied Mathematics major in college, but then realized that most of these aren't for real hardcore math geeks who could probably already teach at an undergraduate level.

However, I'm horrible at math, so many of them are a great review for me. Its just not as hardcore geeky as I'd hope.

this compilation of video links uses real player (.rm) and .wmv and every godforsaken format there is. If you are on windows, you can convert them using winx which is free this oktober. http://www.winxdvd.com/specialoffer/sep0902.htm or you can use ffmpeg (linux/mac).

I would like to add the course on Game theory from Open Yale Courses:

Although they are prepared for economics students,but still I believe it would interest math geeks
