Methods of Instruction
Instructional methods will consist of lecture, presentation and discussion. Text material will be substantially supplemented by additional reading material.
Lecture notes/assignments/handouts may sometimes be made available at Moodle web site.
Read your email often. This is very important. So, I'm repeating it again - I will often send messages containing problem set hints, general announcements, and sometimes answers to questions that one of you asked and are of general interest. If you email me a question that seems particularly interesting or illuminating, I may send it (with my answer) to the entire class. If you do not want me to forward your questions in this manner, please let me know when you ask them.
