This course follows a student-centered approach that recognizes and respects differences in learning styles. Students are expected to use those resources that are effective for them. Effectiveness can be measured by performance on the in-class training assignments and exams. The main resource used will be Hippocampus, which has lectures as well as practice problems.

Note: the first student to notify me of a broken link, or that sends me an additional resource worthy of being posted, will receive extra credit.
