How this course was organized

What's here, and what isn't

  • MIT's own materials here did not support a verified, course-wide order, so they are grouped by section instead.

Not included here

23 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. (22 items)
  • Referenced in a table, but without MIT's own verified order, so it isn't used to claim a sequence.

Materials by section

Grouped by section, as MIT organized them. Not sequenced or ordered.

MIT OpenCourseWare posts these videos to its own YouTube channel, but this course's OCW page doesn't link them, so they aren't sequenced as activities here. Listed in each playlist's own order.
