Lecture Notes


I really want you to listen, think, and respond in class. So I'm supplying my slides so you won't have to be constantly taking notes.

The way these will work is that there will be one version before class and another version afterwards, reflecting anything that may come up during class discussion. The pre-class version might include questions we'll discuss in class with no answers. The post-class version will include my answers as well as contributions from the class discussion. I will try to upload the pre-class version the night before class.
