Many interesting things

I designed and implemented ES.S10: Many Interesting Things, a novel freshman seminar that introduces students to topics many of them will encounter in classes later on in their undergraduate careers. Topics were presented with a light workload and no formal assignments or exams, in such a way that students' intrinsic motivation was able to serve as the guiding force for the class. The seminar ran through the Spring term of 2018 and covered computer architecture, strobe photography, probability, quantum computation, machine learning, computer vision, and cosmology. Student feedback was favorable and the class was adopted as a freshman advising seminar for the Fall term of 2018.
