Prof. Evans, I am a student in Udacity - CS101 as well as one of those brain damaged vets struggling with life we seem to read so much about these days. Instead of resorting to drunken violence and general self destruction (been there, done that...) I am learning, with your assistance to re-wire my brain. Current neuroscience research and a flexible academic curriculum have given me hope. While slow as molasses in January I am progressing and the changes in brain function are having profound effects on my day-to-day life. No words can express my thanks to you and Mr. Thrun. …Good teaching and removing: stress, stigma and general bureaucratic bull from learning yields a truly beautiful, powerful growth experience.
Very best regards, …
