Study advice (preparation and review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
Textbook(s)
The documents prepared by the instructors will be distributed.
Reference books, course materials, etc.
Some documents are distributed at the time of a lecture start as needed and the class is performed a commentary using Power point. The Power point file to use in a lecture discloses it beforehand through OCW.
Evaluation methods and criteria
The evaluation of understanding degree of the students is performed through the exercise and reports submitted by them. Furthermore, class attendance will be also evaluated.
