Notes:

This class is based on strongelements of class participation, engaging the students based on the materials they are required to read. The size of 15-16 assigned to this class is ideal for this method of class engagement. Needless to mention, that students are encouraged to express themselves freely in the class, and go beyond the syllabus when they feel the desire and interest in doing it. Clearly, there is my opening statement introducing the topic of the day, referring the students to the main points which I consider significant and then inviting them to comment on that,suggest their own ideas, discuss and debate between themselves, and finally a dictation by me of the main points . I keep open , at this stage, the possibility of having a simulation game in the end of the course, a technique which I specialized in, and which is based on their active preparation, participation and engagement.

Challenge the conventional. Create the exceptional. No Limits.
