In your tutorial, you will work with your fellow students and your tutor to develop your own understanding of the ideas we will discuss. To become aware of your own thinking, you need to participate actively in an open class discussion. This means not only being prepared to discuss the common readings each week, but being willing to take risks, go out on a limb, and listen to different points of view. The tutors will help you learn how to do this. We ask that you come every week to your scheduled tutorial, and make a good effort to participate, including doing new things.
