Summer
2010 Weekly Schedule |
| A note about image lists (slides): Each week's lecture images are linked to high-quality sources on the web. Unless you have an extraordinary memory, you will not pass either exam without having completed the slide lists for each week with both notes and images. Blank image lists are now linked below and on the main Slides page in .rtf and .pdf electronic files. Participation grades will be determined by weekly attendance, contributions to class discussions, and successful completion of Workshops (for which you must be present to earn credit). Note: Slide lists are currently being updated; the list for week 1 is online, but will also be distributed in class. |
