The course requires a fair amount of student involvement and preparation. In particular, I will lecture only every second (odd) week, and every second (even) week one of the participants will give a lecture on the topic of the week. The lecturer will be chosen randomly, and he or she will be notified 24h before the lecture. The intention is that this way we will all be well prepared and are more likely to digest the material more easily.
The course will also contain some homework problems, typically one problem per week. Since there is no course assistant assigned to the course, we will meet once every two weeks to discuss the home problems. Each problem will be presented by a randomly chosen participant.
Finally, some special topics will only be covered by student projects. The projects will be presented in a series of seminars at the end of the course.
The course has no traditional exam, instead, a passing grade requires
a satisfactory participation in all the different aspects of the course.
