The course will be partly synchronous and partly asynchronous. Lecture contents will be delivered each week through short videos, and there will be two live meetings on Zoom: once on Monday to discuss the topics of the videos in more details with your instructor, and once on Friday for the recitation and the quiz with your TA. Each week will be organized as follows.
- Videos will be available each week on Wednesday.
- Each series of video will contain some exercises that you should try solving when watching the video.
- We will meet on Zoom each Monday to discuss the content of the videos, the aforementioned exercises, and cover more examples. You should have watched the videos and tried the exercises beforehand, since the material will be assumed to be known during these lectures.
- After each Monday meeting, you will be familiar with all the material to do the WebAssign exercises and the homework. The WebAssign exercises are due by Wednesday 5pm and you should do them first. The homework will be more difficult and due by Thursday 5pm. The solution to the homework will be released right after, so that you have time to read it before the quiz.
- In recitation, you will cover more examples, and discuss with your TA to solidify your knowledge. Each recitation will end with a 10- to 15-minute quiz on Gradescope. Attendance and participation will be checked.
