Backgammon: Continue Learning

Whether you are brand-new to the game, or have been playing for years, this course is for you. There are three ½ hour long project-based learning lessons each week. The first ½ hour is for defining the rules, game plans, and goals for beginners. The second ½ hour is for intermediates. The third ½ hour is for an advanced level lesson. There are 10-minute breaks after the first and second ½ hour lessons. Come to one, two, or all three segments. Our goal is to go as deep as possible into each topic. 

In preparation for this class, hundreds of games from students on the site DailyGammon.com were downloaded and analyzed. The errors provide the content for each quiz and lesson. One week before each class you will receive a quiz - not for the sake of grading, but for learning. Your answers and comments will provide the discussion for each segment of the upcoming class. 

At our course website: https://sites.google.com/view/backgammon-continuelearning you can see the course outline, an example of a lesson, and other supplementary materials

Currently, this new website is viewable to everyone, but once our semester begins it will only be accessible to students enrolled in this course. Class videos will be posted here.
