Through January 2009, I will be on leave.

Nonetheless, in the fall term 2008 I am teaching CSCI E-2a, Life, Liberty, and Happiness After the Digital Explosion, in the Division of Continuing Education. This open-enrollment course can be taken either in Cambridge (Mondays 5:30-7:30) or from anywhere with a broadband Internet connection, as a distance education offering.

In the Spring of 2009 I will be teaching Quantitative Reasoning 48 and CSCI E-2a, Bits, and Freshman Seminar 49Y, Amateur Athletics.
