This is the course home page.
Please refer to the links on the left for details about other specific topics. Throughout the semester, these pages will be updated regularly.
The information page contains details about the lecture schedule, the course description and the textbook.
Please pay particular attention to:
The academic integrity page emphasizes the fact that I expect you to do your own work. I hate that I even have to spell this out, but please read it carefully and remember it. It is easier to "just say no" then to face the consequences of getting caught cheating.
The syllabus page will be updated after every lecture, with an outline of what was covered in class. The brief notes found there are not a substitute for coming to class. I reserve the right to examine you on material discussed only in class.
The news page will be kept as up to date as I can make it, with links to lecture notes and assignments. Sometimes these things change (after they are first posted (gasp so you are strongly encouraged to keep abreast of the information posted there before you hand in an assignment.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions and/or concerns. Email is by far the best way to reach me: parsons@sci.brooklyn.cuny.edu
