Audio Versions of All Lectures
We have podcasts of audio versions of the course lectures available from several sources if you have the correct player. Sometimes you might find it useful to listen to the lectures without the slides to give you more exposure to the material.
This audio is from the lectures that come with the textbook "Python for Everybody: Exploring Information in Python 3" used in this course. So while the same material is covered, the lectures are not word-for-word the same as the lectures on Coursera.
