Supercourse - List of lectures
------------------------------
http://www.pitt.edu/~super1/
Friends,
Bob Wallace from Iowa suggested that we distribute as an e-mail a
list of lectures that we currently have available in the Supercourse.
Please use these lectures, or parts of these lectures as you start to
consider your spring-summer and fall courses.
Also, if you are considering providing a lecture you will now be able
to see the broad range of topics we already have, and there are many
others coming in now. In the last 6 days, for example, 7 people of-
fered to write a lecture. We have some very pretty lectures up on
the web. As we indicated before, we very much would like duplicate
titles, as even if the titles are different people will use different
parts of the lectures.
We should have a little more time over the summer. Akira Sekikawa is
overseeing the work needed to distribute an update to the mirrored
servers worldwide. We want to keep everything as updated as possible.
As you review the lectures please indicate to us any major areas that
need lectures, and we will try and recruit people to develop these.
We will shortly be testing out new ways for lecture production to
make it easier on the people who present the lectures.
We hope you have a good weekend.
