Loitering For Credit This Spring - EMILY J. NELSON, Harvard Crimson
The most notable, curious and newfangled courses of the spring semester. Quantitative Reasoning 48. “Bits.” Class on-the-go! Now, thanks to podcasting, students can watch “Bits” lectures while sitting in the dining hall, walking to rehearsal, and even working out at the gym. “Bits,” which is also being offered as a distance learning course through the Division of Continuing Education, will become the first undergraduate course at Harvard to be podcast. Professor Harry R. Lewis ’68 said that while lecture videos will still be immediately accessible online, by the end of the course all lectures will also be available for downloading as podcasts through iTunes.
