Few Words About The Course From Me
This is one of the free courses that codeschool provides.All of free ones,are introductory to some language to get you started. CodeSchool is a pretty good platform.It is for people that wanna learn code,and has many advantages.
This course was very nice.It would be nice that you already knew Javascript,but it was n’t required.It starts from the basics and gives you a good glimpse of jQuery and its magic.
Every unit consists of one video lecture(usually less than 10 min),and some interactive challenges.The format looks like Codecademy,but with better design plus the video lecture.The challenges aren’t very hard and you can keep up with the course easily.
As an introductory to jQuery,i think it is the nicest out there.
Although i haven’t enrolled to Codeschool,i plan to do it sometime soon,when i will have more time to do multiple courses per month.
How To Pass It
You must complete all the challenges,in the course and you will pass it.It is selfpaced,so you don’t have any time limit.Codeschool don’t issue certificates,only badges(can be added to Mozilla Backpack)

Few words About Coursera
Coursera is maybe the biggest and the best platform for Moocs.It started almost two years ago,with a few courses only,and now it offers more than 600 courses from prestigious institutions from all over the globe,mainly in English but also some in Chinese,French,Spanish,Russian.It leads the way on online Education.
Few Words About The Course From Its Instructor
This course is designed to help students with very little or no computing background learn the basics of building simple interactive applications. Our language of choice, Python, is an easy-to learn, high-level computer language that is used in many of the computational courses offered on Coursera. To make learning Python easy, we have developed a new browser-based programming environment that makes developing interactive applications in Python simple. These applications will involve windows whose contents are graphical and respond to buttons, the keyboard and the mouse.
The primary method for learning the course material will be to work through multiple “mini-projects” in Python. To make this class enjoyable, these projects will include building fun games such as Pong, Blackjack, and Asteroids. When you’ve finished our course, we can’t promise that you will be a professional programmer, but we think that you will learn a lot about programming in Python and have fun while you’re doing it.
Course Syllabus
This class is nine weeks long. For most weeks, you will watch two sets of videos (part a and part b) and then complete one quiz for each set. These quizzes have a soft deadline of Tuesday/Thursday, respectively, and a hard deadline of Saturday. The main task for each week is to complete a mini-project that is due on Saturday. You will then be asked to assess your peer’s mini-projects on the following Sunday-Wednesday.
Week Topics Mini-project 0 Statements, expressions, variables — 1 Functions, logic, conditionals “Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock” game 2 Event-driven programming, local and global variables, buttons and input fields “Guess the Number” game 3 The canvas, static drawing, timers, interactive drawing Stopwatch: The Game 4 Lists, keyboard input, motion, positional/velocity control “Pong” game 5 Mouse input, more lists, dictionaries, images “Memory” game 6 Classes, tiled images “Blackjack” game 7 Acceleration and friction, spaceship class, sprite class, sound Spaceship from “RiceRocks” game 8 Sets, groups of sprites, collisions, sprite animation Full “RiceRocks” game
Few Words About The Course From Me
I took this course twice already and i am preparing for the third time.First time,i didn’t make it till the end.I was away during the last 2-3 weeks,so i missed the final project.The second time i finished it.
The course is an introduction to interactive programming with Python.Python is a beginner friendly programming language.The class is using python 2.7 and an online IDE that made for this course,Codeskulptor and a python module,simplegui that’s the instructor build for this course.The goal of the course is to make a fully functional interactive game for the final project that looks like the classic arcade game Asteroids.
This is not an easy programming course.It is not advanced,but it is not introductory either.I had prior programming knowledge when i took this course,so i can really tell how hard it is for someone with absolute no programming background in any language,but i believe that if you haven’t tried programming before,you should try another course first.It is not slow paced,and the projects after the middle of the course need time.
Now if you have some programming knowledge or you feeling confident,you SHOULD take this course.One of the best Moocs out there.Course’s team spend a lot of time building this course and they made something amazing.They have Codeskulptor,they made simplegui and they made great video lectures.
Some facts
It was one of the first course in Coursera
it is the first course in coursetalk in reviews(more than 600 i think)
it is one of the first courses that are in the specialization track of Coursera.
How To Pass It
In order to pass it you need more than 70% score.At the end of each week you need to submit a mini project that will be peer graded and two quizzes.At the final week you need to submit your final project that will be also peer graded.

Summary
What I Liked
The multiple instructors.
The funny lectures.
The online IDE.
The final project.
Course Forums were very very active and a lot of great programmers was there showing their code.A lot of help in study groups
The rubrics in all peer-grading projects were very clear so was easier to be graded fair by your peers.
The second time (fall 2013),there were some prizes during the course.
For me Python is the easiest and more powerful programming language out there.

Few Words About The Course From Its Instructor
How is it that we are capable of transcendent kindness—and unspeakable cruelty? How do we make sense of people’s strongly-held opinions about abortion, gay marriage, affirmative action, and torture? How do evolution, culture, and religion conspire to shape our moral natures? These are among the most important—and most exciting—questions around, and they are the focus of this course. We will explore the modern science of moral belief and moral action, drawing upon disciplines such as cognitive science, neuroscience, economics, and philosophy. We will look at research from the lab, from the community, and from the battlefield; we will discuss babies, monkeys, and psychopaths; we will debate claims about moral differences between men and women, liberals and conservatives, Christians and Muslims. This course will cover prejudice and bigotry, sexuality and purity; punishment, revenge, and forgiveness; and much much more.
Course Syllabus
Week 1: The Big Questions What is morality, anyway? What are the big debates in the field of moral psychology? Week 2: Compassion Where does concern for others come from? How is it related to empathy—and is more empathy necessarily a good thing? And what can we learn from the study of those who seemingly lack normal moral feelings, such as violent psychopaths Week 3: Origins of Morality Here, we ask about which aspects of morality are universal. We discuss evolution, cross-cultural research, and the fascinating new science of the moral life of babies. Week 4: Differences How does culture influence our moral thought and moral action? What role does religion play? Why are some of us conservative and others liberal, and how do political differences influence our sense of right and wrong? Week 5: Family, friends, and strangers Our moral feelings are usually most powerful towards our kin (such as our parents and our children) and our friends and allies. We will discuss these special bonds, and then turn to the morality of racial and ethnic bias. Then we use the tools of behavioral economics to explore the controversial question of whether we are ever truly altruistic to strangers. Week 6: The Big Answers We’ll discuss some clever studies that show how our moral behavior is powerfully influenced—often at the unconscious level—by the situations that we find ourselves in. Such findings raise some hard problems about determinism, free will, and moral responsibility. Most of all, if our actions are determined by our brains, our genes, and our situations, in what sense can we be said to be moral agents? The course will end by trying to address this question.
Few Words About The Course From Me
I am mostly an IT guy,mostly like programming and technology courses,but i also enjoy other courses,like psychology,anthropology,history….Usually even though i like those courses i don’t spend much time on these courses.I just “audit” them.This was’t a course like those.This was a fantastic course,from a great instructor.Even though i have seen a lot of courses that are better structured,with better video quality,with graphics,with a biggest team involved,sometimes we forgot that the basic component of a good Mooc,is just a very knowledgeable professor that CAN teach you.And Mr Bloom,is one of them.
The topic of the course is Moralities of Everyday Life.It explores the subject of morality,how it is shaped through the history of mankind,the cultures,the religions.how the biology or our environment affect our morality.I think this is a life changing course,a course that will change your perception and understanding for a lot of things.
I believe that this course and the A Beginner’s Guide To Irrational Behavior by Mr Ariety,which by the way starts on March 11 again and you MUST take it, are the best non Math/Programming/Technology courses i have taken so far.
How To Pass It
In order to pass it you need more than 70% score.There are six quizzes with 20 questions each.You only have 1 attempt for each quiz.The difficulty of the quizzes were just right.Neither too hard nor too easy(i totally missed the first quiz due to late enrollment,and managed to finish it successfully with 80-85% on the other quizzes).You are given 5 late days and you have 3 more days for the hard deadline for each quiz.
