Hi all, I've become interested in developing a proper understanding of science fundamentals (specifically physics and biology).
The catch is I seem to be an in-between case. Most online courses seem to be geared towards freshman high school students or first year university students, and not for adults that barely passed Physics 12 back in the day ;-)
Any recommendations?
So seven years. That's the thing about being an adult. About life-long learning. The world is not divided into semesters. Knowledge isn't divided into subjects and courses.
Nobody cares about my inability to do discreet optimization homework. It doesn't matter that my interest started when I was in my forties and now I am well into my fifties. Nobody cares in a good way.
So you start with something over your head and learn a little and keep at it as long as you are interested. And then maybe stop for a while and come back later. Or never come back.
There's no catch.
There's no test next Wednesday.
No guidance councilor to place you.
Just start and keep going as long as it is worth doing.
Knuth is over everyone's head. Engaging is merely and terribly a matter of the beginner's mindset.
Good luck.
