Lecture handouts and workshop sheets will be available from the Resources page. (For assignment specifications, see the Assessment page.) The order or delivery date of lectures on this page may change during the semester.
Lecture recordings will be available through LMS although personal attendance at lectures is recommended. Please note that recordings sometimes fail. All material for this unit (except the lecture recordings) will be available only from this web site. Some portions of workshops may be recorded, but the workshops are highly interactive, and personal attendance is expected.
