I thought I'd share this with you, /r9k/, after trying it out and enjoying it.
Basically this is a site containing many free courses. You can learn at your own pace and pick subjects that interest you. If you're NEET, this seems like a great way to spend some of your time.

I've also created a discord so anyone working on courses can chat with other anons working on courses so we can keep each other motivated. If you are interested in joining us, here is the link (please no spam or trolling) https://discord.gg/0zlRlveS7Q1PxUTX
What can you learn on edX? There are a lot of subjects available. Pick one you'd like and start from there. You could try learning programming or learning about history or biology or even a foreign language!

Bumping for knowledge. Enjoy the ride!
I don't use EdX, I just read textbooks, but I like the idea of having this general.
Right now, I'm supplementing my mathematics education that I had botched in high school, and also some computer science math stuffs.
Bump for self improvement.

This is very interesting, thank you knowledge anon

been learning basic coding on codecademy. How does this differ, and/or how is it better?
Udacity and Coursera are also similar sites.

They're basically miniature college classes. A lot of them, if you take them at specific times, even have work that you do and is graded. That's the difference. It's not necessarily better, just different.

To add to this, OpenStax has some really good text books on a range of subjects.

atm I'm reading high school algebra book
my objective is to learn Calculus.
yeah,textbooks are fine and better for good understanding.
only online courses are nothing and you don't gain knowledge with them.

this is how i learned
>>28464174
you can do this with whatever
>>28464226
is so easy o learn whaever yo wan now
Do you have any recomendations?
I'm interested in science, physics, literature and math.
Also why should I even bother with this?
I plan to kill myself fairly soon because life is not worth living.

I'm currently doing the Introduction to Bioethics course and I really enjoy it. It's informative and thought-provoking.
I also have watched lectures from the CS50 Intro to Computer Science and Introduction to Biology, they are both good as well.
I'm sorry to hear that. Please don't kill yourself... If you try the courses out and gain some pleasure and benefit from them, it will have been worth it to try.

Let me recommend the SICP course series. It's essential for anyone hoping to get serious about computer science.

A final bump before I head to bed. Have fun learning anons!
I like the idea, might try it soon
If we're naming similar sites, Khan Academy is another popular one that has tons of shit.
