COURSE STRUCTURE - This course is designed to meet two sessions a week.  During the first session topics will be introduced and covered at a lower level, then during the second session the topic will be elevated to a higher level.  For example, you may be requested to complete an exercise/question one session and then complete a more complex problem the second session.  At times, problems will be presented to the class by groups of students. The course follows a format, requiring extensive student participation.  Students are expected to have the assigned readings, exercises and problems completed prior to class time.  Since this is a four-credit course, you will probably spend around fifteen hours a week preparing for class sessions.
