Learning library

Syllabuses, textbooks and study material, with the licence stated

Everything here is published by somebody else. For each one we say who published it, what you are allowed to do with it, how closely it matches a syllabus, and whether anybody has checked that it is still the current version. Where the answer is “nobody has checked”, it says that instead of guessing.

Listing a resource is not teaching it. What Tutor actually teaches is a different page, and a much shorter list.

Which class are you in?

This narrows the syllabus material. Open resources and research archives are not tied to a class.

Most of what is here has not been peer-reviewed. That is what a preprint is, not a defect — but it means a paper on arXiv has not yet been checked by anyone but its authors. Each paper sets its own licence.

A museum collection, not a course. It is here because someone learning pottery needs to see good work and read how it was made; it will not teach you to throw a pot.
