MIT Open Course Ware

MIT OCW (Open Course Ware) is an amazing initiative from one of the world's best engineering universities, MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston, MA).

The OCW provides online coursework on various topics ranging from Architecture, Engineering, Management to Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences. The course work can be found in formats ranging from PDF files to recorded class lectures.

Visit the main website to find topic of your interest. They keep updating the pages so I'm not going to post many links here except one.

As an example, here is a video on Basic circuit analysis methods, Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) and Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) method. (Lecture by Prof. Anant Agarwal)

I don't have to explain what I'm going to do with this or what this is.
