Summary: This reading course certifies and overviews an ongoing online learning course (Coursera; Finite Element Method for Problems in Physics) which introduces and uses the finite element method to solve problems in physics. The emphasis is on coding up the formulations in a modern, open-source environment that can be expanded to other applications.
The syllabus from the last time I taught this course can be found here.
