Our typical class will consist of a short lecture that focuses on the week’s subject matter, followed by discussion and how it applies to our collective work-in-progress Many classes will include expert guest speakers with whom we will engage in a two-way conversation from the outset about our project.

Ideally, you will work in groups of two to three, which you will create yourselves by Week 3 (after we go through everyone's preliminary Thought Letter). You're welcome to work individually as well, though I firmly believe that you will accomplish more in a group situation, particularly if your project reflects your common professional interests. It's also less work.
