Course Syllabus
Recording Contents
Notes:
- The lectures represent three entire semesters and parts of other semesters of NR 407. The content of the lectures is similar, but not identical, from semester to semester, and the student-participation discussions are, of course, different each semester.
- These lectures were originally recorded on cassette tape or Sony Minidisk recorder, and then transcribed into MP3 files.
- Some were recorded with a lapel microphone, and others with a stereo microphone. The former provides a clearer recording.
- For the 1991 - 1994 lectures, roving wireless microphones were available for the students during discussions, resulting in a better recording of their comments.
- Some of the recordings are truncated do to equipment failure.
- Volume 1 contains the most recent complete set of taped recordings (1994) and all the most recent recordings (2001, 2003). The 1994 recordings are better recordings. The 2003 recordings reflect Dr. Baer's most recent thoughts and organization.
- Volume 2 contains some lectures from 1991 and 1992, along with a complete set of the lectures from 1993. These are all good recordings.
- The descriptions were written over a necessarily long time period (it takes a while to listen to c. 67 hours of lectures), so the style, level of detail, and quality of the descriptions vary. Please feel free to offer enhancements and corrections. Email Rick Cochran (rcc2@cornell.edu).
