- One time I taught this class, myself and another instructor did it in a hybrid fashion, where video lectures were assigned to students to do on their own time, thus freeing up our class time to work on more challenging problems. Some students liked it, but many did not. It proved to be a unique experience, and one I'd like to try again with the now massive improvement in digital lectures available.
- As the Instructor of Record (at College of the Redwoods):
