The following table provides PDF documents of the handouts to the PowerPoint slides used in this class.  I have tried to  make them exactly the same as the lecture material.  However, last minute editing of my lectures may result in slight differences between these notes and the material presented in class.

Where possible, I have prepared the lectures with minimal animation and overlapping images so that these slide notes can be used to clearly reflect the slide content and be interpretable as additional notes.

To access the PDF files you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader software on your computer.

To open the PDF file simply click on the Acrobat image.  This will launch Acrobat Reader and you will see the PowerPoint notes pages (2 slides per page).  Print these documents and bring them to class in preparation for the lecture on that topic.
