[SIGCIS-Members] Open Courseware

[Dave Walden]

Occasionally youtube suggests to me an MIT Course 6 (Electrical Engineering
and Computer Science) free online course (owc.mit.edu).  It seems I could
take most of the classes for a Course 6 major for free. Other universities
also offer the equivalent of MIT's open courseware.

My next thought was to search MIT open courseware for classes in the
history of computing, and I found some:
https://ocw.mit.edu/search/ocwsearch.htm?q=history%20of%20computing
Again I didn't look beyond MIT.

But the above leads me to wonder about single lectures or full courses
available on the Internet for people to learn about the history of
computing.  Do you have recommendations?

(I have found online reports of STS student research projects that are
pretty well done.)

And next I wonder about online lectures or courses that will begin to
instruct the reader/viewer in becoming a historian-of-computing
researcher.  Do these exist?

Best regards,
Dave
