Author_Institution :
Princeton Univ., Princeton, NJ, USA
Abstract :
We summarize the key ideas about a new undergraduate course in networking created at Princeton University in Fall 2011, called “Networks: Friends, Money, and Bytes.” It cuts across social, economic, and technological networks to present fundamental ideas in networking. It teaches the mathematical material in the “just in time” pedagogical style through 20 questions. It also organizes the class into an online social and economic network.
