The lessons are selected early in the semester whenthe course schedule is distributed and students with a strong preference can volunteer for acertain topic. The assignment carries the weight of one homework and accompanies a studentdata sheet which is used to introduce the student lecturer. The student lecturer then develops thelesson and example problem using the assigned reading from the textbook, the lesson objectives,and occasional support from the instructor. The students are encouraged to use multiplemediums to present the topic and solve a pertinent example
