CS10 - The Beauty and Joy of Computing (Spring 2012)

UC Berkeley - Computer Science 10 - The Beauty and Joy of Computing (Spring 2012). This consists of 25 video lectures given by Dr. Dan Garcia, discussing the history, social implications, great principles, and future of computing. This course focuses on some of the "Big Ideas" of computing, such as abstraction, design, recursion, concurrency, simulations, and the limits of computation. This course shows some beautiful applications of computing that have changed the world, talks about the history of computing, and where it will go in the future. Throughout the course, relevance will be emphasized: relevance to the student and to society.
