[Sursound] New MOOC "Communication Acoustics"

2016-10-26 Thread Jens Ahrens
Dear Sursounders,

I would like to draw your attention to a new MOOC on the topic of communication 
acoustics: https://www.edx.org/course/communication-acoustics-rwthx-ca101 The 
course is a collaboration of several academics based in Germany as well as 
myself. It is going to start on Dec. 5. There are chapters on (amongst other 
topics):

- Fundamentals of acoustics
- Room acoustics
- Anatomy and physiology of the human hearing system
- Psychoacoustics
- Speech acoustics
- A lot on spatial audio capture and presentation
- Psychoacoustics in product sound design
- Perceptual audio coding

The course is in English (please don’t mind our accent…). It is more of an 
introduction to the topic. I would therefore think that it is not so 
interesting for most of you but it might be so for your students. The course is 
actually part of the curriculum at most of the participating universities, and 
we’re having onsite written exams at 4 locations. This is also the reason why 
the course is so long (14 weeks). It had to fit into the academic schedule.

Greets,
Jens

I wish they provided some audio recording samples other than what's in the
videos. Does anyone here know the gentleman in their promo video? He seems
to be based in Toronto so it would be great to touch base with him.

Best,

Hector
