There will be homework every week. If you can get together with others to work on it, that's great. If getting together is not possible, phone conferring can be helpful.
There will be Something Summative on February 3 and March 16 (exam week). It could take the form of a relatively conventional exam, or a group exam, or some variation thereof. The general idea is to motivate some reviewing and tying together of material without producing an inordinate amount of stress on anyone's nervous system.
There will be a Project due March 3. You will have the choice of doing a relatively small individual report or experiment or banding together with one or more classmates and producing something more major. If you have an idea of something you'd like to do, tell me about it and we will discuss how to make it work as a project. On this one I'm highly flexible--I simply want you to do something probability-related that you enjoy and learn from.
