Das liebe Geld - Finance im Alltag
Durch den MOOC „Das liebe Geld - Finance im Alltag“ erlangen Sie ein Basiswissen für bewusste und korrekte finanzielle Entscheidungen im Alltag. Sie eignen sich konkrete Werkzeuge an, die Ihnen helfen können, bessere Alltagsentscheidungen zu treffen und bekommen einen Einblick in verschiedene neueste Forschungserkenntnisse der Finance. Wir begleiten Sie in sechs Wochenmodulen zu soliden finanziellen Alltagsentscheidungen. Nach einer Einführung erlernen Sie den Zeitwert des Geldes als zentrales Konzept zur Entscheidungsfindung. Überlegungen zur persönlichen Finanzplanung folgt das Basiswissen zur Geldanlage. Danach halten Sie inne und reflektieren die Frage der Werte anhand konkreter Beispiele, insbesondere in Bezug auf Finanzprodukte wie Derivate und Strukturierte Produkte. In einem Exkurs erhalten Sie auch Einblick in Bitcoin und Blockchain. Das Thema Geldanlage wird anschliessend vertieft: Sie begegnen dem grössten Feind des Anlegers und betrachten die Interaktion der Finanzmarktteilnehmenden in biologischen Analogien. Am Ende reflektieren Sie das Gehörte und Erlernte kritisch und nehmen hoffentlich viele konkrete Hilfsmittel in den Alltag mit. Die Inhalte der einzelnen Module können auch einzeln bearbeitet werden. Der Kurs eignet sich also auch für jene Interessierte, die nicht Zeit oder Interesse am Gesamtkurs haben. Der Kurs wird in deutscher Sprache gehalten.

Using Python to Interact with the Operating System
This course is designed to explore how to execute Python locally and organize and use code across different Python files. Learners will learn how to read and write different types of files, use subprocesses and input streams, create Bash scripts, and use regular expressions. This course also covers automatic testing and explains how to set up a developer environment on a personal machine. We’ll kick off by exploring how to execute Python locally, and organize and use code across different Python files. We'll then learn how to read and write different types of files, and use subprocesses and input streams. We'll also dive into Bash scripting and regular expressions -- both very powerful tools for anyone working with systems. We'll even touch on automatic testing, which allows us to automate how we check if our code is correct. To finish, we’ll put all this together by using the tools that we’ve acquired to process data and generate automatic reports. We’ll also explain how to set up your own developer environment in your machine. This is a key step in being able to write and deploy powerful automation tools.

Applied Data Science Capstone
This is the final course in the IBM Data Science Professional Certificate as well as the Applied Data Science with Python Specialization. This capstone project course will give you the chance to practice the work that data scientists do in real life when working with datasets. In this course you will assume the role of a Data Scientist working for a startup intending to compete with SpaceX, and in the process follow the Data Science methodology involving data collection, data wrangling, exploratory data analysis, data visualization, model development, model evaluation, and reporting your results to stakeholders. You will be tasked with predicting if the first stage of the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will land successfully. With the help of your Data Science findings and models, the competing startup you have been hired by can make more informed bids against SpaceX for a rocket launch. In this course, there will not be much new learning, instead you’ll focus on hands-on work to demonstrate and apply what you have learnt in previous courses. By successfully completing this Capstone you will have added a project to your data science and machine learning portfolio to showcase to employers.

Introducción al estudio de los bienes comunes
El curso te introduce al estudio de los bienes comunes (como bosques, mecanismos de irrigación, tierras de pastoreo, pesquerías, recursos culturales o la información) y su gobernanza. El eje central del curso es la propuesta de la Teoría de la Acción Colectiva y de los Recursos Comunes, considerando sus elementos teóricos centrales y sus implicaciones metodológicas. La teoría de la acción colectiva está entendida como la movilización de las acciones de los miembros de grupos y/o de la sociedad, con propósitos de cooperación. Este tipo de acción es fundamental para la gobernanza con perspectiva de largo plazo (es decir, el uso sostenido y la conservación) de los “bienes comunes”. A lo largo del seminario se buscará relacionar los contenidos teóricos con distintos problemas empíricos locales, nacionales y globales.
