MIT 9.00 Introduction to Psychology

As a follow up to my last post about iTunes U, I thought I’d tell you about one of the best lecture series that I’ve done on there: MIT 9.00 – Introduction to Psychology

It’s a first year course that covers a huge range of topics about how the brain works, why we act the way we do, effects of mental illness and a vast range of other topics. The professor, Prof. Jeremy Wolfe, is a great lecturer as he really knows how to keep your attention with humor and fascinating bits of information.

I’ve learned so much from it and really gained a lot from listening to it.  It’s 23 lectures, about 1hr 20min each and completely worth the time! It was my preferred listening while I was driving around the NZ countryside on my road trip there and I really can’t recommend it enough hahah

How to get it with iTunes:

  1. Open up iTunes U in iTunes (see previous post on how to do this)
  2. In the search box type “MIT Cognitive”
  3. Click on “MIT 9.00 Introduction …” with the picture of the brain beside it
  4. Start downloading those lectures

You’ll want to make sure on your iPod syncing options that you have the “Sync iTunes U” box checked off under the iTunes U tab.

How to get it without iTunes:

If you don’t have iTunes, you can still download the mp3′s of the lectures directly from the MIT Open courseware site.
