You are strongly encouraged to progress through each unit by doing the required readings, listening to the audio component, and then answering the questions at the end of each unit as a means of assessing your progress. Where cases have been assigned, questions will be directed to individual students by way of the discussion group during the week in which the case is scheduled. To assist the understanding of the lecture, it is suggested that you participate in this discussion group by selecting one of the assigned topics and responding to it. You may also respond to what others have submitted or ask general questions. The software to receive the audio component may be down loaded from a link on the home page of this course, free of charge.
Students can then choose the lecture modules they wish to listen to from a convenient menu.
During and after listening to the audio, students can view text highlights and graphics in the slide show mode, participate in interactive exercises, post questions or comments to the Discussion Group for this course, and read what is submitted by other students and the course director.
