I enjoyed Andrew Ng's class on Coursera, which introduces basic concepts. For "real world," maybe find a dataset on data.world and try to figure out how to answer a question that is interesting to you?

I'm going through this one right now, and really enjoying it. Being able to learn at my own pace is great. The course is math heavy, but that's to be expected. I'm enjoying using Octave for the programming.
