Progress
This page lists the material and assignments for each week in the semester. We update the contents on at least a weekly basis. For the past weeks, it is a record of what we have done. For the current week, watch out for updates and changes.
This is your schedule resource for this course. Do not rely on the Canvas calendar for due date information for assignments except for the Canvas quizzes.
Slides from past semesters are provided here for your reference. In this course, I mostly write on the board from my notes (which you will notice are very similar to the slides). As these are prior semester slides, dates and zyBooks chapters might not align entirely with us this semester.
