Course Schedule

NOTE: The original version of this schedule indicated this course was self-paced. That was an error. This course is instructor-paced as is indicated in the syllabus. The schedule has been corrected to show release dates. The due dates for all quizzes and the final exam are still November 26, 2018 at 23:50 UTC as originally indicated.

IMPORTANT: All release dates and due date times on this schedule are listed are in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) using 24-hour time format (often called "military time"). You must convert UTC to your local time zone. Also note that your country may observe Daylight Savings Time (DST) during the run of this course, so the time that UTC converts to in your local time zone could change partway through the course. We recommend converting both the date and time for each date listed.
