With November coming to an end, here’s a recap of a few things we announced in our monthly newsletter in case you missed it. (To stay up to date on the latest Udacity news make sure you sign up!)
To get a taste of what launched Udacity and the MOOC movement, we are bringing back the original AI course! We have re-launched it with some new improvements and you now have a second chance to learn the fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence from Sebastian Thrun and Peter Norvig. For a bit of history, we posted the back story on our blog last week.
November has also been our month of working to continue to broaden access. We’ve made all of our courses available for download and updated our terms of service to match. The goal of this is to help students who have restricted access to YouTube or have slow internet connections. You can download courses here.
We have also signed with Amara to have 100% of our courses close captioned in English and make more of our courses accessible in different languages. And thank you to all of you who have already participated in our translation project and made our courses available in 45 different languages so far! View each individual course for more the most up to date information for specific courses. For those of you would like to help us to make education more accessible in different languages, join the Udacity team on Amara.
And last but not least, we were excited to see that TechCrunch has added a new Education Start-up category to their Crunchies Awards. Help us get nominated for a Crunchie Award by voting for us.
We have many things in the pipeline. To stay in touch sign up to receive our newsletters.
Continue to be Udacious!
