Course Notes for Monday, December 7

I.

I'd like to begin with the course evaluations. Julia will pick up the forms from outside my office and distribute them to everyone. As you probably all know, these evaluation forms are very important: I will read them closely to revise and improve the course; they will also be read by senior faculty when I go up for tenure in a few years. So take your time and please be honest and generous!

 

II.

I'll join everyone at 7:30 pm, with the hope that the evaluations are done by then. I'd like to take 30 minutes or so to reflect on the course -- to give you a space to put into words things you may have written or thought about while doing the evaluations as well as to respond to my own reflections. I've posted a draft of these reflections here:

I'd love for you to add comments or anything else you're thinking about on Serendip as well.

 

III.

Around 8 pm, we'll transition to having a chance for you to talk more about the final preparations for the event on Wednesday. I'll stick around as long as you need me but if you want to depart to work on your projects, that's fine too.
