Class topics and problems
You will observe that I assign
homework BEFORE we talk about a topic. That is because I really want
you to READ the material, and struggle a bit with the problems; then the class and my
lecture, or the group work, will make more sense to you, and you will
be in a better position to ask good questions. ATTEMPTING problems and seeing where you get stuck is much more useful (albeit painful) than churning through problems that you basically already know how to do! It is always a good idea to DOWNLOAD Worksheets as they become available and to get started on them; updated (2011) assignments appear above the horizontal rule.
