How the Course is Run:
This self paced course involves reading the downloadable pdf textbook, doing the homework/test included 
and then passing a short final test.  
   The reading and homework is done on your own and at your own pace.  You can download 
the text and homework right now and start, or just look it over.  When you finish and feel you have answered 
well the homework questions, you can submit the homework with the $30 grading fee.  You will then receive 
via email a short test that you must finish and email back your answers within 7 days.  The final 
test is shorter and easier than the homework, and is mostly intended to make sure the student did 
the reading (The homework questions are available to everyone, while each test is unique to the 
student).  The week will be more than enough time to finish the questions.   
 
If the student has finished the homework and passed the final test, he or she will receive credit 
for finishing and passing the course.  The student will have demonstrated he has understood the material.
