Yuen Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 I'm enjoying the course as well. It is amazing what you can get for free on the internet... Thanks for opening the world of Coursera to me Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
UberTumbleweed Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Ack! Waldo, you're scaring me. I feel like you've got a way better grasp than I do. I can't believe it's so short, either. I was hoping for more questions to minimize the effect of flubs.

Yuen Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Did anyone else get a very strange stoppage in the Week 3 Part 1 video at about 3:50, where the video stops, and asks you randomly 'What colour is the sky?'. Quote Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
UberTumbleweed Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Yes, I got that too. How weird! I wonder if he was playing with the in-lecture quiz feature and just forgot to take it out.

Waldo Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 How's everyone doing? Just finished the 2nd quiz that counts (modules 3-4). Thought it was a lot easier than the first one. I'm curious as to what the assignment is going to be like. Quote currently cutting battle log challenges: 21,20, 19,18,17,16,15,14,13,12,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 don't panic! Link to comment
fiOWNya Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I'm dissapointed I didn't see this course earlier! I've joined now, though... just gotta catch up. Quote Fiona From Apprentice to Master... | My Character and Goals | Current Challenge | Monkey Tamers United Link to comment
UberTumbleweed Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Last days! How's everyone been doing?I'm doing my peer assessment gradings right now. I'm kicking myself for a few tidbits I left out of my own answers. But I feel almost like I'm studying instead of grading. I think I like this peer assessment business.

Waldo Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Now that you guys have opened the world of Coursera to me, I think I might be addicted Me too. I'm just starting out on "Networks: Friends, Money, and Bytes" https://www.coursera.org/#course/friendsmoneybytes You pick up your iPhone while waiting in line at a coffee shop. You google a not-so-famous actor, get linked to a Wikipedia entry listing his recent movies and popular YouTube clips of several of them. You check out user reviews on Amazon and pick one, download that movie on BitTorrent or stream that in Netflix. But suddenly the WiFi logo on your phone is gone and you're on 3G. Video quality starts to degrade, but you don't know if it's the server getting crowded or the Internet is congested somewhere. In any case, it costs you $10 per Gigabyte, and you decide to stop watching the movie, and instead multitask between sending tweets and calling your friend on Skype, while songs stream from iCloud to your phone. You're happy with the call quality, but get a little irritated when you see there're no new followers on Twitter. You may wonder how they all kind of work, and why sometimes they don't. Take a look at the list of 20 questions below. Each question is selected not just for its relevance to our daily lives, but also for the core concepts in the field of networking illustrated by its answers. This course is about formulating and answering these 20 questions. I'm also signed up for a class that starts in a couple weeks, "Video Games and Learning" https://www.coursera.org/#course/videogameslearning Videogames aren’t just fun, they can be powerful vehicles for learning as well. In this course, we discuss research on the kinds of thinking and learning that goes into videogames and gaming culture, benefits and drawbacks of digital gameplay, tensions between youth culture and traditional education, and new developments intended to bridge that growing divide. This class seems like it might interest a few here. Quote currently cutting battle log challenges: 21,20, 19,18,17,16,15,14,13,12,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 don't panic! Link to comment
