One of the things I've decided to change from today is to just take the time to train... Physically and my little brain, every day.
Right now I'm completing a course on #Coursera ( #Google #itsupport Professional)
As well as courses with the #SRAM technical University and #Shimano Tec.
Dear #Coursera:
If I wasn't a robot in module 1 and i wasn't a robot in module 2, why are you still asking me to prove that I'm not a robot in modules 3, 4, etc.???
The #UniversityOfToronto #LawSchool requires first year law students to take an #EDI course from #Coursera, a US online course provider.
Coursera doesn't market the course as EDI but as a 'history' course. All 3 of its professors are Israeli & work for #YadVashem, a museum in #Israel.
Do parents sending their kids to study law at #UofT know the level of anti-Arab Islamophobia they'll be exposed to?
Long shot, but FediVerse do your magic:
I am thinking about taking courses in #ArtHistory at a universarian level. Preferably online (#MOOC). I have scoured #Coursera and #edX but haven‘t really found a comprehensive course (there‘s bits and pieces all over).
Does anyone know of something or has additional pointers to look at?
#Überblick über das #zeitgenössische #Ökosystem der #Daten
#Bezeichnend finde ich, dass beim Punkt "Different types of analysis and skills to generate insights" in Beziehung zu #Nutzenden lediglich eine #einseitige #Verbindung (Pfeil) gezeichnet wird.
Ähnlich wie bei #Konzepten von #CitizenScience und #Kundenarbeit wird dem #Kunden nie #struktureller #Zugriff auf die #Operationen der #Organisation gewährt.

I have a genuine #historical question: "I wonder how did kings manage to compel their servants and other people that their power was given by Gods? Why did people want to be ruled by kings? Why did they buy that scam?
I'm doing some research for my WiP by retaking the Coursera Cryptography course. I think it hasn't been updated in the 10 or so years since I last did it.
The lecturer actually references TrueCrypt as an example of disk encryption. TrueCrypt was abandoned in 2014 for reasons unknown. It's considered unsafe.
I've started my #programming journey. I've studied two #Python courses for beginners through #sololearn and #coursera. This morning I had a look at #GitHub. I was excited to find a platform outside of the learning environment to connect with others. I was left frustrated by the #coding space, and couldn't for the life of me work out my it wouldn't run the Python code 'print("Hello GitHub!").' I intend to go back but not today... Not today.

During my travels, I always follow a lot of courses on #Coursera and #Domestika
Currently, I am enjoying a course called "The Visual Poetry Diary", taught by Lina Botero. And trying to do the exercises on "automatic writing" in the languages that currently surround me... 
Please correct my mistakes @languagelovers
Just a quick reminder!
In California, the Los Angeles Public Library allows you to get a library card even outside of LA, as long as you live in California.
With your, #LAPL account you have access to a lot of program including free #LinkedinLearning and #Coursera.

Other Public libraries probably offer the same.

最近は趣味らしいことほとんどできていませんがよろしくお願いし
@beingRealFrank No probs! Glad to share, as (after trying several #training suppliers), the #Coursera + #UMich works best
Nice promos @ #Coursera, see image.
#2023 is 𝗧𝗛𝗘 year for trainings:

Some bonus user / insider tricks:
Don’t cancel prematurely, they’ll increase the price back to normal next time. But:
If You start the cancel procedure, they will want to retain You, by proposing e.g. 50% off
Not sure if will work 4 U. I’m there since spring 22. Godspeed
@beingRealFrank As I always repeat: go #UMich #trainings on #Coursera. Either the 2 single courses out of 5, starting with prof. Chris Brooks, or the complete #python #dataScience Specialization
Allows to become a #Pandas and #AI / #ML 
gymnast in no time (with some occasional peek into #StackOverflow)
Certificates, as mine, are a nice touch, but possible to choose the free "audit" trail & actually learn - which is the most important thing

@cabu Yess! 
It gets easier the more You are into it 
Mountains become mere hills.. until they dissapear in the rear view mirror.. Trust me!
Good luck!
PS. #Coursera has nice promotions till 15 Jan, I think.

Sometimes one has to believe in oneself.
I’m completing several #Coursera certificates in #AI, #ML & general #Python. Goes smoothly - albeit a lot of programming work overnights to pass exams, which gives flashback to my student times
Anyway, sometimes there’re open text questions. While I put research & effort in them, some folks just put.. anything
Bah, I’ll never believe in myself. It’s my curse.
Good night, #Mastodon.ian’s. Glad I got You in the neighborhood. It ain’t the #birdsite
@zlatiah Been there, done that, been sometimes stuck like that
Solution? #UMich on #Coursera. Either that single course (the 1st one out of 5, with prof. Chris Brooks), or the complete #python #dataScience Specialization. Worth it.

What apps are folks using to upskill tech? I have been using #Coursera but increasingly frustrated with their "subscription" model, feels predatory. It is very difficult to get the full experience of taking a course and the associated tests without the monthly subscriptions for some of the courses.
I have looked at #edx and they are similar.
New instance, so repeat the #introduction:
I'm Brad, and I was on the Internet before you. Well, except for @spaf - he was here before me I suppose.
Back in the day I discussed comic books with someone at NASA through Usenet and used Gopher to get song lyrics.
After completely failing at university in the 90s I've had a decent career in IT anyway. Currently I'm a Service Delivery Manager by day, while I complete a degree online through #Coursera. I'm a huge supporter of the #MOOC concept.
