We are planning two new courses, one of which will be the first of our many creativity courses. To best assess which subjects our students would find most beneficial, we would like to ask you this question:
If you could learn any subject at this very moment without applying it toward a degree, which would it be?
Please reply to this topic or email polymath@projectpolymath.org to respond (you must be logged in to reply to the topic). We appreciate your help!

PS303 has been canceled due to insufficient enrollment. |
Roughly 20-30 donated Data Structures and Algorithms slides, assignments, labs, and materials, previously prepared by the instructor for a 14-week twice-weekly format. (Note that these materials may refer to this previous class and the dates that the class was held. These references may be safely disregarded).
Audio annotations will be posted lecture-by-lecture as time permits.
This course is free. Assignments will be graded only on request. Suggested prerequisites include an understanding of basic Java or C++ programming and basic familiarity with discrete mathematics.
Suggested donation: $140 for the whole course.
A first course in web design and development using graphical design tools. Topics include web design, HTML markup, style sheets, Javascript, and basic AJAX. Offered online at this website. The lectures may be viewed at your own convenience. Prerequisites: Basic computer skills, familiarity with Microsoft Windows. Initially offered from April 4 to June 6, 2009. Lectures will remain online indefinitely, but no new webspace on our servers or certificates will be issued for this course. Cost: Free. Suggested donation: $10 per lecture. How to further develop and to ultimately leverage your individual creativity as an economic force to your benefit within the context of the creative class and the economy at large.
Start date TBA, taking place in Q4 2010. This course is free, but donations are strongly encouraged, as this course is experimental and we may not be able to offer another one like it for quite some time if we cannot recoup our investment in it.
A talk (not a complete course) given on learning, creativity, time management, and the lives of historical polymaths, with a focus on how to apply these lessons from the past to the universal pursuit of knowledge in the present.
Given online and in selected areas within the United States. Complete list of locations TBA.
The talk is now available online.
Marketing and building awareness of brands, products, and services, primarily within the context of small business, where fiscal and human resources are limited.
Start date and details TBA.
A case-study course on designing systems (whether architectural, mechanical, or virtual) that are meant for human interaction, and how to optimize those interactions.
Start date and additional details TBA.
