LECTURES
The class notes we take during each lecture are designed to be an aid to note taking, not a substitute for listening to the lecture. You will be responsible for all of the information discussed in class, even if it is not outlined in the class notes. It is essential that you attend each class meeting. If you miss a class, I suggest that you get the notes from a classmate and discuss any questions that you may have about the material with me afterwards.
MOODLE

Moodle will be used to post your term tests and final exam grades for the
