| An Introduction to Interactive Programming in Python | December 2013 | October 2013 - December 2013 | Coursera |
| This course is designed to be a fun introduction to the basics of programming in Python. Our main focus will be on building simple interactive games such as Pong, Blackjack and Asteroids. This course is designed to help students with very little or no computing background learn the basics of building simple interactive applications. Our language of choice, Python, is an easy-to learn, high-level computer language that is used in many of the computational courses offered on Coursera. To make learning Python easy, we have developed a new browser-based programming environment that makes developing interactive applications in Python simple. These applications will involve windows whose contents are graphical and respond to buttons, the keyboard and the mouse. The primary method for learning the course material will be to work through multiple "mini-projects" in Python. To make this class enjoyable, these projects will include building fun games such as Pong, Blackjack, and Asteroids. When you’ve finished our course, we can’t promise that you will be a professional programmer, but we think that you will learn a lot about programming in Python and have fun while you’re doing it.

| Secrets of Mental Math | February 2013 - April 2013 | 12 lectures | The Great Courses |
| Quick: What's 25 × 45? How about 742 × 300? Or 4821 ÷ 9? Most of us, when faced with math problems like these, immediately reach for a calculator or a pen. But imagine if you could perform these and other seemingly difficult—but surprisingly easy—calculations right in your head. Seems like an impossible feat? It's not. One key to improving and expanding your math potential—whether you're a corporate executive or a high-school student—lies in the powerful ability to perform mental math calculations. Solving basic math problems in your head is a gateway to success in understanding and mastering higher mathematical fields such as algebra, statistics, and calculus. It's a skill that offers other lifelong benefits, including giving you a competitive edge in school or at work; keeping your mind active and sharp at any age; improving your performance on standardized tests; and learning to solve problems by using a variety of methods. Taught by Professor Arthur T. Benjamin, Harvey Mudd College 1) Math in your Head! 2) Mental Addition and Subtraction 3) Go Forth and Multiply 4) Divide and Conquer 5) The Art of Guesstimation 6) Mental Math and Paper 7) Intermediate Multiplication 8) The Speed of Vedic Division 9) Memorizing Numbers 10) Calendar Calculations 11) Advanced Multiplication 12) Masters of Mental Math | |||
| Biology and Human Behavior: The Neurological Origins of Individuality | February 2012 - June 2012 | 24 lectures | The Great Courses |
| When are we responsible for our own actions, and when are we in the grip of biological forces beyond our control? This intriguing question is the scientific province of behavioral biology, a field that explores interactions among the brain, mind, body, and environment that have a surprising influence on how we behave—from the people we fall in love with, to the intensity of our spiritual lives, to the degree of our aggressive impulses. In short, it is the study of how our brains make us the individuals that we are. Biology and Human Behavior: The Neurological Origins of Individuality, 2nd Edition, is an interdisciplinary approach to this fascinating subject. In 24 lectures, you will investigate how the human brain is sculpted by evolution, constrained or freed by genes, shaped by early experience, modulated by hormones, and otherwise influenced to produce a wide range of behaviors, some of them abnormal. You will see that little can be explained by thinking about any one of these factors alone because some combination of influences is almost always at work. Taught by Professor Robert Sapolsky, Stanford University 1) Biology and Behavior - An Introduction 2) The Basic Cells of the Nervous System 3) How Two Neurons Communicate 4) Learning and Synaptic Plasticity 5) The Dynamics of Interacting Neurons 6) The Limbic System 7) The Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) 8) The Regulation of Hormones by the Brain 9) The Regulation of the Brain by Hormones 10) The Evolution of Behavior 11) The Evolution of Behavior - Some Examples 12) Cooperation, Competition, and Neuroeconomics 13) What Do Genes Do? Microevolution of Genes 14) What Do Genes Do? Macroevolution of Genes 15) Behavior Genetics 16) Behavior Genetics and Prenatal Environment 17) An Introduction to Ethology 18) Neuro-ethology 19) The Neurobiology of Aggression I 20) The Neurobiology of Aggression II 21) Hormones and Aggression 22) Early Experience and Aggression 23) Evolution, Aggression, and Cooperation 24) A Summary | |||
| Understanding the Brain | October 2011 - February 2012 October 2012 - February 2013 |
36 lectures | The Great Courses |
| Everything that goes on inside your body and every interaction you have with the outside world is controlled by your brain. It allows you to cope masterfully with your everyday environment. It is capable of producing breathtaking athletic feats, sublime works of art, and profound scientific insights. It also produces the enormous range of emotional responses that can take us from the depths of depression to the heights of euphoria. Considering everything the brain does, how can this relatively small mass of tissue possibly be the source of our personalities, dreams, thoughts, sensations, utterances, and movements?

| Questions of Value | August 2011 - October 2011 September 2012 - October 2012 |
24 lectures | The Great Courses |
| Our lives are filled with everyday questions of fact and finance. Which investment brings the highest return? What school district is the house in? What will this candidate do if elected? But the really fundamental questions of our lives, says Professor Patrick Grim, are questions of neither fact nor finance. They are questions of value. They are the deep questions that apply to every aspect of our lives. What is it that gives something genuine value? What things are really worth striving for? What is it that makes life worth living? Are there values that transcend cultural differences? Can we have ethical values without religion? If the universe operates in terms of deterministic laws, how can there be real choice? Is all value subjective? We can even ask if life is always worth living, or whether in some situations we would be better off dead. Taught by Professor Patrick Grim, SUNY at Stony Brook. 1) Questions of Value 2) Facts of Values 3) Lives to Envy, Lives to Admire 4) Foundations of Ethics - Theories of the Good 5) Foundations of Ethics - Theories of the Right 6) Thoughts on Religion and Values 7) Life's Priorities 8) The Cash Value of a Life 9) How Do We Know Right from Wrong? 10) Cultures and Values - Questions of Relativism 11) Cultures and Values - Hopi, Navajo, and Ik 12) Evolution, Ethics, and Game Theory 13) The Objective Side of Value 14) Better Off Dead 15) A Picture of Justice 16) Life's Horrors 17) A Genealogy of My Mortals 18) Theories of Punishment 19) Choice and Chance 20) Free Will and Determinism 21) Images of Immortality 22) Ethical Knowledge, Rationality, and Rules 23) Moralities in Conflict and in Change 24) Summing Up | |||
