Edx/BUx Introduction to Differential Equations Starts 5/16

[Ideas]

For video tutorials, Khan Academy is useful. For written explanation, Paul's Online Math Notes are very good. You can also get the notes for Calc 1 & 2 there. There's a Shaum's Outline book for diff eq, with solved problems - it's not expensive. Coursera has a couple of great free calc classes (1 & 2) by Jim Fowler of Ohio State - personally I love his videos because he tries to make it relevant, rather than just dry theory.

Did you purposely leave out Study.com because you feel it's inferior for Calc? I know some people were discussing how Study.com isn't college level learning, so I'm worried I'll only know about half the material after going through Study.com. Do you have any ideas about that?

I'm reading their Calc AB + BC review course pages, and it does seem rather easy so far. I've done Calc I and II but it should be harder, because it's been so long since I've done any of this. I think Study.com seems easier now because they reviewed PreCalc and other basics. I did about 40% of the course reading. I'm expecting it to get harder, and I do plan to use another source or two. But I'm wondering if I should spend another couple hours on Study.com as my first step in re-learning, or spend my time elsewhere.

My reason for starting with Study.com is I prefer to learn from text and not video, and I like text that has lots of space and shorter chunks, unlike serious textbooks. I'll do a textbook if needed, but I like books more like the "for Dummies" series
