A quick question about the MIT course this student followed[1]. Am I correct in assuming that the way to follow this course would be to take the lecture notes, the assigned reading material, and simply read it before then moving on to the assignments? Just wanted to make sure I'm not missing some video/other content before I take a look into this stuff.

- hackthesystem 5y agoI think that is the recommended approach, but I just read the lecture notes and started working on the assignments. I tried to prioritize coding because it helps me retain knowledge better over time

- mathisonturing 5y agoHow does this stack up against Intro to Database Systems from CMU?
- hackthesystem 5y agoWhen I was implementing SimpleDB in 2019, I believe CMU's course didn't have resources and lab assignments that were publicly available. Now CMU has published a full video lecture series (which MIT doesn't have) and their labs. So if I were starting again today, I would probably go with CMU's course.
