Study order: MIT's own listing order, section by section. Taken from MIT's published course files, downloaded from ocw.mit.edu on September 23, 2026. How RedLectern is built.

Materials are grouped the way MIT organized them. A verified, course-wide order has not been established here.

How this course was organized

What's here, and what isn't

A lecture sequence of 24 items is confirmed. Assignment and exam materials exist too, but MIT's own order for them could not be verified, so they're shown as materials below rather than a sequence.

Not included here

5 items from the source could not be safely included:

MIT's page format for this item wasn't recognized clearly enough to place it safely. (4 items)
Referenced in a table, but without MIT's own verified order, so it isn't used to claim a sequence.
