Below I’ve outlined the complete reading list for PPOL564. I’ve broken the readings up into “Required” and “Additional Resources and Suggested Materials” for each week of class. For some weeks, there are a lot of different readings (e.g., Week 7), and for other weeks there are fewer readings but the readings are more involve (e.g., Week 12). The readings for this course are meant to support the concepts and materials covered during lecture. I encourage students to first lightly skim the readings prior to consuming the asynchronous lecture material, and then to read/heavy-skim the readings before the synchronous lecture. This will help you better absorb the main points. It’s always easier to read when you have a sense of where you’re going.
For most weeks, the reading are readings are freely available online. If links break for any of the readings, please let the professor and/or TA know as soon as possible.
