It’s time to go back to school — 21st-century style — and the Gazette‘s here to help you through it. As we reported in our July|August 2012 issue, Penn has partnered with Coursera to offer free classes online. The first installment features a dozen courses, ranging from single-variable calculus with PIK prof Robert Ghrist (who is renowned for actually making Intro to Calculus funny), to Greek and Roman mythology with esteemed classicist Peter Struck. But taking a class online doesn’t have to mean taking it alone. The Gazette‘s enrolling too, and we’ll blog about the class as it progresses. Which class? That’s up to you. Vote below. A few of the courses began in June, so the choices here are for classes set to begin between July and September. But don’t dilly-dally — votes will be tallied soon after our July|August issue hits your mailbox around Independence Day.
