Free Access to Computer Science Course Material

Coming into this semester, I thought it would be a good decision to take a class that covered the basics of computer science.  After my first week of classes however, I decided that it wasn't worth the time and dedication because of my work and school schedules.  My interest in the subject has not diminished though, and I tried to seek out a way to get that information elsewhere.

So earlier this week, someone pointed me towards a website that offers Free Online Course Material to several entry level courses.  Among these courses was Computer Science 101, which is exactly what I was looking for.  The website, http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/, is almost like taking a lecture without being graded.  There are full-length video tapes of each lecture as well as practice tests and notes to help out.

I am just recently finding out about this, so I haven't had the chance yet to fully explore the site. As a Broadcast/Journalism major who would like to get to know more about Computer Science I just figured that this would be helpful to anyone in the same boat as me.

First Post for Web Design Class

I'm going to be honest, I didn't even think about posting in the blog during the past week.  I suppose I could have looked stuff up to spice it up a bit, but I didn't.  I figure once I learn the basics of how to play around with my template and add/remove buttons is when I'll start really messing around with the format.
