Self-education

I’ve restarted my self-education project by hitting up iTunes U, and also getting a Great Books reading list together.

Language
Latin: Wheelock’s plus texts from TextKit
Greek: Pharr’s Homeric Greek from TextKit
Japanese: Japancast in HD + a Japanese Literature overview in English
French: FrenchPod

History
Classical Mythology
The Ancient Mediterranean World
Knights & Maidens
Ancient Greek History

Philosophy & General
Philosophy for Beginners
Critical Reasoning for Beginners

I need to find a good basic algebra course and I’ve been collecting links for other subjects to read/learn.

Now of course this isn’t all at once, but I do plan on studying one thing daily.

Autodidactism

Have devoured this Lifehacker Post. Made many links in del.icio.us archive and am downloading a lot of podcasts from UC Berkley in areas such as Chemistry, Amercian Cybercultre and Open Source Development. Lovely thing podcasts are. Also, I’ve collected links for various online books and sites and will dig up my Great Books lists.
I’m also going to try to learn French and Japanese and perhaps Chinese as well. Lots of neat things on the web nowadays related to learning new things.
