This outline is tentative and subject to change.
The class is officially 9-9:50 MWF. Lectures will be pre-recorded, but there will be some synchronous activities at/around the class time.
We'll mostly use the recorded lectures from Fall 2020. I'm posting them all early so that you can read ahead. However, be aware that I may tweak the schedule or change/improve the videos and lecture notes, as we move through the term. So if you read ahead, check for updates as we get close to each week. A star (*) marks a new item or one where I've made substantive changes.
Readings are on a separate page.
