Before our next meeting (Wednesday, Aug. 28), sign up for Learning Catalytics and Piazza (if you didn’t already). Also, read the following resources: introduction to strict voice-leading and composing a cantus firmus.

Please make use of Piazza, rather than emailing me directly, if you have any questions about the reading, the course, the syllabus, the policies, the homework, or the technology.

Welcome (back) to Boulder!

Before our first meeting, please read the syllabus, assessment, coursework, and policies pages for this course, as well as the Unit I guide. Note any questions you have about these documents.

Also, please bring a web-enabled device to class, such as a smartphone, tablet, or laptop.

I look forward to meeting all of you on Monday!

This term we will be using Piazza for class discussion. The system is highly catered to getting you help fast and efficiently from classmates and myself. Rather than emailing questions about course materials directly to me, I encourage you to post your questions on Piazza. If you have any problems or feedback for the developers, email team@piazza.com.

Of course, matters of a private nature should not be addressed on Piazza. Please email me about private concerns, or better yet, come by my office so we can discuss them in person.
