This course does not have a specific textbook. However, the students are supposed to read papers and actively join the class discussions
This class is intended to be highly interactive and each class is either a discussion, tutorial, or a walkthrough.
Students will be evaluated based on their mini projects/assignments, class participation, reading summaries, and the final project. Students are expected to have the readings and summaries completed prior to class (see class schedule). Note that class discussion will largely be based on these readings. Also, students should inform the instructor on any work travel or other commitments that might arise during the semester.
For more information about the assignments/project component, see the assignments page.
Also available as an ical file that you can subscribe to.
