Attendance and participation are mandatory. Please let me know in advance if you must miss a class. Three or more unexcused absences will result in a lowered grade.
All reading materials will be available for download from our class schedule page.
A detailed schedule can be found at http://cailab.net/classes/101/schedule.php. Generally, we will complete one reading per week, and you are required to complete one short homework assignment per week in addition to reading the weekly article. You will also be required to complete one group project as described below.
Each week you will be required to complete a homework assignment based on that week's reading. In order to get credit for your homework, you need to turn it in using the on-line form before class. Details for the homework assignment can be found at http://cailab.net/classes/101/homework.shtml.
You will work in small groups (2-4 students) to locate, prepare, and present a reading of your choice to the class. We will discuss this project in detail during our first or second week of class. You can find details about this project at http://cailab.net/classes/101/readingroups.shtml.
We will have a midterm and final exam. Exams will be based on our on-line readings.
