I'm wondering if any of my readers have used The Great Courses to learn a new hobby, craft, art, or maybe just to delve into a new area of history or knowledge. It looks like most courses are available in DVD format or online and there appears to be a great variety of subjects. The slogan "The World's Professors at Your Fingertips" makes it sound a bit like homeschooling for adults. I imagine business has been good during the pandemic as people look for things to do in isolation.
What would you be interested in?
Science? Music? Learning a new language?
Browse through the courses and tell me what catches your interest.
I think the full prices are way too high for me to consider and the sale prices make them look even more ridiculous. But if you just look at what you'll actually pay, it doesn't look too bad for many of them -- especially if it's an area of interest.
Thoughts?
John
