This teaching circle is for teachers interested in incorporating mindfulness practices in their classrooms. We’ve all heard about the beneficial effects of mindfulness meditation on mental and physical health, which include stress reduction, improved focus and concentration, and increased emotional stability and self-confidence. These are desirable states of well-being for student and teacher, alike, but understanding is one thing, and implementation is another. How do we bring mindfulness into the classroom? What kinds of practices are there, and how do we offer them to students in an open, respectful and non-coercive way? In this teaching circle, we’ll look at these questions, practice a little meditation, exchange ideas and techniques, and support each other in this inquiry into what a mindfulness-based contemplative pedagogy might be.

CSC 249 is an introductory course in computer networks. Our primary focus will be on developing intuitions around the basic performance and engineering tradeoffs in the design and implementation of computer networks. Throughout the semester, we will explore the fundamental architecture of computer networks and how they function today, as well as investigate some of the history that explains why they are designed the way they are and how they are likely to evolve. We will also strive to connect concepts in the design of computer networks to more general topics in the design, implementation and operation of distributed computing systems.
We will draw the majority of our examples from perhaps the most ubiquitous computer network today: the Internet. To help make the concepts we are exploring more concrete, this course will include several hands-on programming projects involving the design and implementation of networked systems.

underlying implementation. Topics include file systems, CPU and memory
management, concurrent communicating processes, deadlock, and access
and protection issues. Programming projects will implement and explore
algorithms related to several of these topics.

This course is designed to introduce students to varying aspects of Contemporary Dance. We will explore who we are as artists and movers through exercises crafted to enhance our access to self-expression. We will cover a lot of ground, placing value on the exposure to a variety of material. The course includes anatomy and kinesiology through movement, dance improvisation, partnering, and choreographic phrase work, all at the introductory level. At the end of the semester, we will craft our very own duets and/or trios.
