Course Content
The narrative of the course will be managed through lecture and the blog, scottastrong.com. On this site you will not only find posts about course content but also the following:
- Course Text: Through the school's SpringerLink have access to the following text, David Logan, A First Course in Differential Equations. I have started annotating this book to include my thoughts, extra derivations if needed and suggested problems from the associated sections. Here is the link to the library holding, those on campus should be able to go straight to the pdf, while those off campus will have to VPN in. Here you will find my annotations to the text. To Do: Break the books into chapters and post the chapters for ease of use.
- Course Onenote: I have a tablet and use MS Onenote. I'm hoping to use it to organize some elements of the course, e.g. notes with gaps, heavy textual or graphic information w/ minimal narrative. You can find the public access point here.
