This page contains some or all of the following resources for each topic:
- Content materials contain suggested readings, resources, and other details about topics covered in class. These will be updated periodically through the term. Where appropriate, links may require you to be logged into to the library or to your UAlberta Google account;
- Slides are either “Xaringan” presentations that can be opened in any browser, or directly downloadable PDF or PPTX slides. PDF versions of all slide decks are available, but some features will be lost from HTML Xaringan presentations;
