Editing Intro to Programming and Data Science (Fall 2021) (section)

== Lectures ==

Our class time will follow the "flipped" classroom model. I will provide asynchronous materials (readings, recorded lectures, assignments, etc.) which you will work on before class and we will use our class time to review concepts, identify confusion, and synthesize.

The class sessions will typically follow the same format. First, we will discuss the reading for the day, with discussions generally led by a student. We will then have a discussion about the concepts that are still confusing. Next, we will go over the homework questions followed by optional co-working time to start on the next assignment.

I try to make the classes useful and to tailor them to the needs of the students, and I highly encourage you to attend as many of our sessions as possible. My teaching style is very conversational and relies on students being willing to speak up to express confusion, seek clarification, or make a well-informed point, so please participate!
