How this course was organized

What's here, and what isn't

  • This course has 27 videos, each embedded on its own MIT page, across 13 sections. They're shown in MIT's listing order within each section. A verified course-wide order is not claimed for this course.

Not included here

43 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. (33 items)
  • Referenced in a table, but without MIT's own verified order, so it isn't used to claim a sequence. (10 items)

Units

Each unit is offered as its own lecture sequence; there is no single course-wide order across units.
