Section Expectation

This course will use a "flipped classroom". Students will be required to complete readings and watch videos before material is discussed in class. Class time will focus on clarifying challenging concepts presented in the reading and videos, activities, discussion, and completing problem sets. Attendance and participation (in person) are required and worth 20% of the course grade. Preparation assignments can be completed for credit only BEFORE class meetings in which the material is discussed. There will be no credit given for completing preparation assignments after the due date, but three preparation assignments will be dropped. Students will need to bring laptops to class.   There will be no cost associated with textbooks or other class materials. We will use an open-source textbook and software that is free to UVM students.
