Conquius Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Let's say that for your 'Life' goal for your Six-Weeks Challenge, you wanted to learn something new. I suggest we compile a large source of online-resources for learning things and sticky it on Life Hacks.Here are some of my personal favorites:MathematicsKhanacademy.orgComputer ProgrammingKhanacademy.orgCodecademy.com (Javascript)Spanish, French, German (Italian and Portuguese are coming)Duolingo.comMIT Online Coursewearhttp://ocw.mit.edu/index.htmHarvard's Open Learning Initiativehttp://www.extension.harvard.edu/open-learning-initiativeAny other suggestions?
