TBP Teach

TBP-Teach is a program during IAP run by students, for students. In the past, we've taught courses such as Intro to Programming using Java, Intro to Circuits, Linear Algebra, and Review of Signals and Systems.

Courses offered this IAP:

Review of Probabilistic Systems Analysis (6.912)
Instructors: Wanmei Ou, Pavitra Krishnaswamy
Thu Jan 15, Tue Jan 20, Thu Jan 22, Tue Jan 27, Thu Jan 29, 02:30-04:00pm, 36-153

A review of Probabilistic Systems Analysis (6.041/6.431) in preparation for 6.011 and the EECS TQE. This course will review key concepts of probability theory. Two required problem sets, no final exam.

Review of Circuit Analysis (6.098)
Instructor: Philip Godoy
Mon, Wed, Fri, Jan 5, 7, 9, 12, 14, 16, 21, 23, 01-03:00pm, 36-112

Prereq: 6.002 or equivalent

Review of 6.002, Circuits & Electronics, teaching basic circuit theory and principles of electrical engineering. It is primarily intended for students who want to review the course material, particularly first-year Course 6 graduate students studying for the TQE. Fundamentals of the lumped circuit abstraction. Resistive elements and networks; independent and dependent sources; switches and MOS devices; digital abstraction; amplifiers; and energy storage elements. Dynamics of first- and second-order networks; design in the time and frequency domains; analog and digital circuits and applications.

Four required homework assignments.

Introduction to MATLAB (6.094)
Instructors: Danilo Scepanovic, Patrick Ho
Mon Jan 12 thru Fri Jan 16, 07-08:30pm, 54-100

Prereq: familiarity with programming; 18.03; linear algebra

An aggressively gentle introduction to MATLAB, to give students fluency, including popular toolboxes. Interactive lectures with computers running MATLAB for each student. Problem-based MATLAB assignments. To pass, a student must complete all assignments. Students are encouraged to bring their own laptops with MATLAB installed; for those without, laptops will be provided.
