En este curso de física vamos a discutir la gravitación cuántica de lazos o bucles (Loop Quantum Gravity) que es uno de los dos contendientes más importantes a compatibilizar la teoría de Albert Einstein de relatividad general, que es una teoría de la gravedad con la teoría cuántica. En este curso en línea vamos a explicar qué significa gravitación, cuántica y lazos, para así conocer sus impactos e importancia en el universo. En cada módulo iremos describiendo en profundidad, con ejemplos cotidianos que significa cada una de estas palabras. EsteMOOC es un acercamiento cotidiano a la gravedad cuántica, el curso entrega al estudiante el conocimiento para entender cómo la gravedad cuántica de lazos mezcla la mecánica cuántica y la teoría de la relatividad general.
An excellent online course offered by edX: how it works
edX courses consist of weekly learning sequences. Each learning sequence is composed of short videos interspersed with interactive learning exercises, where students can immediately practise the concepts from the videos. The courses often include tutorial videos that are similar to small on-campus discussion groups, an online textbook, and an online discussion forum where students can post and review questions and comments to each other and teaching assistants. Where applicable, online laboratories are incorporated into the course.
edX offers certificates of successful completion and some courses are credit-eligible. Whether or not a college or university offers credit for an online course is within the sole discretion of the school. edX offers a variety of ways to take courses, including verified courses where students have the option to audit the course (no cost) or to work toward an edX Verified Certificate (fees vary by course). edX also offers XSeries Certificates for completion of a bundled set of two to seven verified courses in a single subject (cost varies depending on the courses).
