"In this project-centered course, you will have the opportunity to build a modern computer system from scratch. Throughout the course, you will engage in six hands-on projects that will guide you through the process of constructing elementary logic gates and ultimately creating a fully functioning general purpose computer. The aim of this course is to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of how computers work and how they are designed.
No previous computer science or engineering knowledge is required to enroll in this course. All the necessary knowledge will be provided as part of the learning experience. Additionally, no physical materials are needed as you will be building the computer on your own PC using a software-based hardware simulator, similar to how real computers are designed by professionals in the field. The hardware simulator and other software tools will be provided free of charge after enrollment.
The course consists of six modules, each consisting of video lectures and a project. It is estimated that each module's lectures will take approximately 2-3 hours to watch, while completing each project will require around 5-10 hours. The course can be completed in six weeks, but learners have the flexibility to progress at their own pace.
This project-centered course follows a unique format that allows you to actively apply new concepts as you learn. By working on real-world projects with guidance from instructors and a community of like-minded learners, you will gain a deeper understanding and be able to use your newly acquired skills to make positive changes in your life and career.
Upon completion of the course, you will have not only gained valuable knowledge but also have a finished project that you can be proud of and share with others. If you want to learn more about this course, you can watch a TED talk about it by searching for ""nand2tetris TED talk""."
