PickVidsBest University lectures & courses Videos
「University lectures & courses」下面有127部被不同的人、在不同月份推荐过的视频。挑的时候先看对象：入门48部，适合还没学过的人；进阶39部，适合已经懂术语的人；普通向32部，按兴趣就能看；更硬的8部，留给想看推导或细节的人。这一类数量最多的是课堂讲座，所以它们的共同点是用上课的节奏把一条推导走完，而不是只丢结论。常出现的频道包括MIT OpenCourseWare、Stanford、Jordan B Peterson。目录给这个主题划的范围是：Full university lectures and course series: MIT OpenCourseWare, Stanford, Harvard lectures, introductory course lecture 1, lecture series across subjects, professor lectures.如果只看三部，就从《How to Speak》开始，它负责把问题讲出画面；然后看《1. Introduction to Human Behavioral Biology》，换一种讲法或例子；最后看《LEADERSHIP LAB: The Craft of Writing Effectively》，留给已经有基础的人。页面按每页24部切开，顺序看的是被推荐跨越了多少个月，不是播放量。每条标题下面那一句是这部片子自己的内容说明，用来区分它在讲定义、过程、演示还是观点。点进去能看到推荐原话、原文链接和适合谁看。看的时候把强烈推荐当成有人明确叫你去看，把引用当成只是拿来举例，把批评留下来对照，不要把每条评论都当成同一力度。
