You should have read the entire first two chapters (and part of Chapter 3 specifically 3.1, 3.2) in the textbook by the end of this week.

  • example1.doc
  • example2.doc


    • Note that although example2 is a nice write-up overall, the critique of the speaker (last paragraph) is 2/5 - as it did not mention or convey the coverage of particular concepts.
