The following is a copy of the tentative course schedule. Follow the links to overheads from the lecture given on that day. The overheads are meant to serve as a guide, they are NOT complete lecture notes. Please note that overheads are not available until after the lecture has been given.
When you follow the links to the overheads, you will have several options. You can click on the "click here to start" to simply view all of the slides in order. When you begin viewing the slides, at the bottom of each page there will be buttons to control how you go through the presentation.
You can also use the table of contents and the links below it to jump to any slides you wish to see. This is helpful if you've already been through the whole presentation and just want to review a few slides. Most slides have titles, but slides that are exclusively graphics will not have a helpful title.
If you choose either of these options, and wish to get back to the main page of the slide show, simply click on the button below the slide that has an "i" inside a circle.
Lastly, if you have powerpoint on your computer, you can download the whole presentation by clicking on "download presentation source". If you do this, you will get the actual powerpoint presentation to use on your own computer. You will be able to view the slides, or print them if you wish.
