Will we use "skill and drill" exercises? "Skill and drill" exercises are those point-and-ckick exericises in which you are given a question with a few options, like a multiple choice test, and then you click on the right answer. No, we will not be using those because of the instructor's belief that they are passive, mindless, and a waste of everybody's time. Nor will we have online chat sessions as lectures for much the same reason. However, we will have oppurtinities to engage in real-time chat, but generally informally.
