Prof. Anthony Hornof, Winter 2008
The schedule is designed so that the group projects, the reading assignments (from vanVliet, 2000), and the in-class lectures and discussions should all complement each other and provide a synergistic learning experience. This schedule will evolve during the term to reflect opportunities that arise for a customized learning experience. Previous versions of the schedule: 1 2 3 4
