Eventually I'll have to start putting it in, but when I do the talks will get longer (and require even more time from me, b'gawd).> (There may be a mismatch somewhere ( Kahn Academy seems oriented towards > people essentially auditing classes sorts of thing ) but this might fit > on there - dunno.So -- you suggesting I should look into this Kahn Acadamy?

That said, it really does depend on what audience your'e trying to reach.>> (There may be a mismatch somewhere ( Kahn Academy seems oriented towards >> people essentially auditing classes sorts of thing ) but this might fit >> on there - dunno. > >So -- you suggesting I should look into this Kahn Acadamy?

But I don't know if it fits their mission or you'd be interested or what. https://www.khanacademy.org/ Wish they'd had that when I was in high school.

See my website if you're interested >http://www.wescottdesign.comI think it would be helpful to spell out the terms you are defining on flash cards or a blackboard or something. It is the same as with names for me, I find them much easier to remember when I have seen them written down. Ced --------------------------------------- Posted through http://www.DSPRelated.com

I helped hire my replacement at FLIR; the woman that we hired had gotten started in control theory because she was getting a Bachelor's in economics. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com I'm looking for work -- see my website!
