Robotics and Society -Course Links

  I take moocs whenever I come across a topic that appeals to me. All of the courses use online resources outside of the class site. Starting with my current mooc enrollment, I've decided that I am going to create one blog entry for each class, as a place to store the course links in one easy to find page. This seems to be the best way to organize the links. Creating files and bookmarking just wasn't working efficiently. Classroom access is not a forever thing, and even if it were, they do not have all the links gathered on one page.

  For the most part, I take only one course at a time, so don't expect to see many of these resource blog posts. The posts will be edited each week to add new links, for the duration of the class.
