3. Watch video lecture (in PioneerWeb Video Lectures or at YouTube) and ask questions in the Q & A Discussion forum  or in the General channel of our Teams Work Group.  
4. I do not currently have plans for our class time but I encourage you to use this time to start work on the next homework and come into the General Channel for office hours if you have questions.  Also, you should work on the team project as much as possible during the reserved class time.
