In the fall term 2011, I taught Computer Science 121, Introduction to Formal Systems and Computation. This course was also offered as a distance learning course through the Harvard Extension School as CSCI E-207. I also taught a Freshman Seminar on Amateur Athletics.
In the spring term, 2012, I taught a new course on Discrete Mathematics for Computer Science, Computer Science 20.
I will be on leave from Harvard during the academic year 2012-2013.
