The first week's discussion will take place all week, and it will focus on (a) finding a mutually suitable time for a "real time discussion" and (b) dealing with any technical issues with the website. After this, we will meet at a specific time (or times) that are acceptable to all; if we have a small group this will be one 50 minute period, if we have a larger group we will have two or more sessions (but attendance at only one will be required). Your grade (totalling 20% of the overall grade) will depend on your level of contribution.
