Lecture

Time: 9:30 - 10:45 Monday, Wednesday, and Friday

Place: ONLINE Synchronous (check your email for Zoom info)

This course should meet for two lectures for about fourteen weeks. I have scheduled three lecture slots to front-load the course to enable better projects. Thus, approximately twelve lectures will be cancelled.

Approximate Schedule & Readings

  • Online PDF for notes and papers for University of Wisconsin only.
  • Do not print lecture notes far in advance as they may be updated.
