Real Analysis - Fall 2020Basic Course Information
Course Goals
Course ComponentsAssigned Reading
Before each zoom meeting each student will read the assigned portion
of the textbook in preparation for the class meeting and the group
discussions. Groups will comprise four members, each with one of four
roles. The latter are discussion leader, presenter,
devil's advocate, and notetaker and will change from
session to session. Zoom MeetingsWe will meet twice a week online. During each session we will address issues of common interest altogether before breaking into groups of four. Each group member will play one of four roles: discussion leader, presenter, notetaker, and devil's advocate. The roles will rotate each class and will be recorded in a file in Overleaf. Each group will act as a mini classroom with assigned presentations and discussions about the material. While some prompts for conversation will be provided, everyone is encouraged to raise any issue of their interest or concern.Class JournalAs we go through the course material we will use a shared Overleaf Project as a class blog, in which questions can be asked, answers can be given, and comments can be posted. Everyone is invited to participate and the course's instructor and TA will monitor the discussion and provide input as needed. The journal reflects the structure of the class meetings so that it can be used during the reading and class preparation phase, as a recap of the major issues discussed during the team work, and as a useful future reference when reviewing the material.Homework AssignmentsWhile collaboration and exchange of ideas are an integral part of this course, it remains important to set aside some time for individual work. Weekly omework assignments are reserved for this. They are an opportunity to assess your progress and your understanding of the material. Once you turn in your assignments via Overleaf, the courses TA will mark them and leave feedback. If you only obtain partial credit, you will have the opportunity to improve your work for additional credit.DiscussionsDuring discussion selected homework problems are discussed along with old exam problems relevant to the topic at hand.Evaluation PolicyThe final grade of this course will be based on
