MIT Introductory EE Goes Hands-On

Posted by timothy on from the is-that-how-things-should-be dept.

pioneer writes "MIT is looking to replace its introductory core EE (electrical engineering) curriculum with more hands-on classes. MIT Professors Abelson and Sussman discuss the new class, which replaces equations with actual circuit building, tours of electrical plants, and classes taught by famous professors."

    MIT's elite status rests on the fact that they get the lion's share of the "Defense" research budget.

    Not only do they help reinforce class divisions in society they also develop so much of the technology America uses to terrorize and kill people all around the world.

    MIT only impresses me in the way a Nazi death camp impresses me.
