131 Recitation Schedule (2013)

Page history last edited by Ben Dreyfus 10 years, 4 months ago

Working content I (2013)

 

Below is a table of suggested activities for recitation. Some tasks have been highlighted by the research team as important for our research questions, those appear in the 3rd column. In places where the research team does not have a strong research interest, there is a suggested list of activities to choose from that we have used in the past (4th column), with a * marking those that we have found to be particularly productive.

 

Note that because the schedule for the semester often changes, we have provided a suggested week, but it would be important for the content from class to align with the content in the 1st column to make the recitation most successful.
