Tutorial Component

The tutorial section will be up to 1 to 1.25 hours. In the tutorial section, lecturers will discuss the previous week’s assigned homework questions and address any issues from the previous week’s materials. The tutorial provides an opportunity to discuss the solutions to selected homework questions and to have any problems or difficulties explained.  Students should complete the assigned homework for the topic, consisting of discussion questions and practical exercises. Each week, homework questions will be worked through to demonstrate the logical steps and processes involved in working through the practical aspect of the topic.
