The Stanford iTunesU classes have been truncated to a few seconds. So Susanna Braund's Aeneid course (which was brilliant) is gone. Same thing with their Hannibal course. I don't know that they're available elsewhere. Apple dropped iTunesU (2021?) and Stanford didn't have a backup.
There are so many things I wish I had time to learn about. I don't need my learning resources, I need a way to jack in and have them uploaded to my brain.
If anyone responsible for the site's CSS happens to see this, the fixed height in pixels of #header causes the nav bar links to be partially obscured making them more difficult to click. My current window's width is 1600.
Too bad that most Coursera courses are now behind a paywall. First they were free without certification, after a few years they removed the access to quizzes and tests but you could still audit for free. Now, you have to pay.
too many ads on this page, and the links go to more pages with ads and mostly to a website that only has "samples" of the courses for free
a repository of free online courses would be great, but despite the good intentions, this site is not it
Unfortunately, the promise of free online university courses is a thing of a the past. EDX and Coursera got bought out and are now money-making online ed sites.

^^ Good resource for textbooks
That page was taking over 6GB
And yet when I look up from my phone at the screens of everyone else on the bus, I am the only one not on Instagram.
