Online Lectures:
You can access the Audio and the Video lectures from the links in the columns below.
The class details are available from Blackboard (https://learn.kent.edu/).
Notes:
1.  The Camtasia Video lectures should open on both PCs and Macs.  The Camtasia video has a Table of Contents and each segment has its own time stamp.  The video window can be made full screen.  
2.  In some rare cases when there is a technical problem, the video posted may be a .wmv file.  These files  require Windows Media Player.
3.  The Video Kent site has audio and video that should work on any devices. These can be viewed in streaming format, or you can  DOWNLOAD these files.  
4.  The .wma Audio files require Windows Media Player on your computer (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/ or http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/mac/ for Macs).
