## What it is
Open course materials for a university reinforcement learning course, including LaTeX lecture slides, tutorial exercises with solutions, Jupyter notebooks, and recorded lecture videos. Licensed CC BY 4.0 for reuse by students and lecturers.

## Use cases
- learn reinforcement learning from scratch
- find lecture notes on Markov decision processes and temporal-difference learning
- set up a university RL course with existing slides and exercises
- practice RL with tutorial tasks and solutions
- self-study reinforcement learning with videos
- get Jupyter notebook exercises for RL algorithms

## When to choose
- you want a complete, structured RL curriculum with videos and exercises
- you are a lecturer reusing open course material under CC BY
- you prefer theory-first learning with worked solutions

## When to avoid
- you need a production RL library or framework
- you want only code without lectures or theory
- you need a license permitting redistribution beyond CC BY terms

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: machine-learning, reinforcement-learning, developer-tools
- domain: reinforcement-learning, education, machine-learning, tutorials
- platform: python, cross-platform
- tags: lecture-notes, open-educational-resources, jupyter-notebooks, latex-slides, online-videos, university-course, self-learning
