2005/11/22 - Remember that the last lecture in this course is Tuesday November 29th. McGill has cancelled regularly scheduled lectures on December 1st to accomodate courses where lectures where cancelled due to the Labour Day holiday. - GFC
2005/11/22 - All PowerPoint lectures to date are now available. Presentations from the first part of the course are accessed from the Course NOTES web page and these reside on the Education Server. Later presentations are also accessed from the Course NOTES web page but link to the Cool.McGill server. This should be transparent to you. Still later, these uploads contain the full audio lecture of each lecture and these can be further downloaded to your IPOD. Still later, improvements were made to the sound on the more recent lectures. We're learning and improving as we go along. - GFC

2005/09/18 - Lectures - We have now clarified that there will be no formal lectures during the student teaching/observation period. Effectively, this means that there willl be no lectures during those two weeks. We will correspondingly reduce the number of chapters in the text to be read. Essentially, we will eliminate the chapters which concern topics which are normally taken in other courses. For this reason the Course Notes and the Lecture Schedule pages have been revised to show all relevant dates and chapter readings. - GFC
