Here, I will list upcoming activities. I will update this page frequently, so it's a good idea to check back often.

You will note that the course requirements consist of a text, a set of audio cassettes, a set of video cassettes, and a CD-ROM. Please make sure you watch/listen to the appropriate components for the week. There is a label of contents on each, with the course dates listed.
