Oct 05, 2008 Classes StartedWell, it is that time of year again. I have come back from the summer, found my research in much the same state that I left it (at least it didn’t go backwards), and it is time for classes to start. Now, I have no more class requirements, so I go to whatever classes I find interesting. I could not take classes, but I figure that I am here, and might as well get my money’s worth. Now, this is dangerous, as I can only take 2 classes per term, so it is difficult to choose what class to take. But, it is rewarding, as in the past I have taken some cool classes like Public Economics, and Innovation Teams. This year, I am taking Nextlab. This is a class where we develop projects using mobile devices to deploy in developing countries. Yes, most people have mobile devices in developing areas - there are actually more cell phones in third world countries than in the first world (citation needed). Anyways, this class is cool. We work in project teams, and each team includes a pair of students from Emerson College from across the river. The Emerson students are at all our meetings videotaping us and will make a video blog/documentary of the project. You can see the blog for my project here. Other than Nextlab, I am taking an optics lab class. Also, I was signed up for Computational Photography, but had to drop it because I can only take two classes (that is probably a good thing, as I don’t have too much free time as it is…) Oh well, I am looking forward to a good semester.
