Great Books

GBT I students should see the paper guides for instructions on writing their papers- guides.html    There are weekly questions to help you prepare for our discussions- GBTIQuestions.html.  Please keep a written notebook or word processor file containing your answers to the weekly questions.  At the end of the semester, you will need to mail me a copy of your notebook or email it to me if it has been kept in a word processor file.  Please watch my intro to GBT I video.

Geometry
For the first tutorial, please read the definitions, postulates and common notions at the beginning of book I of Euclid's Elements.  Also read propositions 1-3 of book I in the Elements.   Be prepared to discuss your understanding of this material.  At the end of class each week,  I will assign the propositions for the following week.   We will do approximately six propositions a week.  If you were not in class to receive the assignment or forgot it, you can find it on the geometry page.
