Other Readings
Other readings are online (linked from the course Schedule page). Because so many of the readings are online (a trend that is increasingly prevalent in college courses) , students will need to develop a method or workflow for themselves that optimizes their ability to study the materials. While everyone has their own personal preferences and technical preferences, the following are some suggested options for handling online materials:
- Printing. UCSB students have 100 pages of free printing at selected computer labs on-campus each quarter. Computer Lab Info: https://it.ucsb.edu/services/labs/open-access-labs
- Annotating PDF's on a laptop or desktop computer. Some of the online readings in the course are Adobe Acrobat "PDF" files. An excellent way to read PDF's is to use the highlighting, commenting, bookmarking, and other annotation features in the free Adobe Acrobat Reader program (or another PDF reader program) to mark up documents as you study them. The latest version of the Acrobate Reader program may be downloaded here.
- Annotating PDF's on a tablet computer.
