The course will utilize short lectures by the instructor, group discussion, and individual questions. Students are expected to read the relevant portions of the text both prior to the content introduction and again after the introduction. They should identify and ask questions on any part of the text which is not clear.

Homework on each area is assigned on the class when content is introduced and for two sessions thereafter. This should allow students to work on fresh problems after initial questions have been answered.

Students should keep a notebook of homework problems both to study from and to turn in at the end of the course. The arrangement should probably follow the text location rather than the order of assignment.
