Effective Thinking Through Mathematics (edX)

Sci: Mathematics

Learn tools of effective thinking through puzzles and mathematics in this fun and fascinating course. A wondrously romantic belief is that brilliant thinkers magically produce brilliant ideas: Einstein jostles his hair and relativity falls out. We can enjoy these fanciful visions of leaps of genius, but we should not be fooled into believing that they’re reality.

Introduction to Linear Models and Matrix Algebra (edX)

Sci: Biology & Life Sciences Statistics & Data Analysis

Learn to use R programming to apply linear models to analyze data in life sciences. Matrix Algebra underlies many of the current tools for experimental design and the analysis of high-dimensional data. In this introductory data analysis course, we will use matrix algebra to represent the linear models that commonly used to model differences between experimental units. We perform statistical inference on these differences. Throughout the course we will use the R programming language.

Differential Equations: Linear Algebra and NxN Systems of Differential Equations (edX)

Sci: Mathematics

Learn how to use linear algebra and MATLAB to solve large systems of differential equations. Differential equations are the mathematical language we use to describe the world around us. Most phenomena can be modeled not by single differential equations, but by systems of interacting differential equations. These systems may consist of many equations. In this course, we will learn how to use linear algebra to solve systems of more than 2 differential equations. We will also learn to use MATLAB to assist us.

Sci: Mathematics

Master the calculus of curves and coordinate systems; approximate functions with polynomials and infinite series. Part 3 of 3. How did Newton describe the orbits of the planets? To do this, he created calculus. But he used a different coordinate system more appropriate for planetary motion. We will learn to shift our perspective to do calculus with parameterized curves and polar coordinates. And then we will dive deep into exploring the infinite to gain a deeper understanding and powerful descriptions of functions.
