Free university-style lectures

Video lectures, notes and worked answers, from A Level to first-year university

Each lecture teaches the A Level ideas first, then the first-year maths. Every page is checked against its sources before it goes up.

Signals and Sound

From "what is a signal?" to the door of second-year signal processing: sampling, bits, decibels, converters, filters, harmonics, the spectrum, amplifiers, digital filters, effects and convolution. Each lecture teaches the A Level layer first, then goes deeper for first-year students.

How it is made, and how it is checked

An AI-generated presenter

Professor Kettlewick is an AI character, not a real person. The courses are written from published specifications and textbooks, and made by DigitalZoo.ai.

Checked twice against sources

Claude and ChatGPT each review every page independently against its cited sources, and every numerical answer is recomputed by code.

A lecturer's check, shown separately

When a university lecturer has checked a lecture, its page says so and when. Until then it says the check is pending.
