These handouts are not ‘homework’– you do not have to read them prior to attending the workshop (although feel free if you are feeling enthusiastic!). We do ask that each participant brings along a copy of the handout to the workshop in whatever format they prefer (digital or hardcopy) as we will be using and referring to these handouts during the workshop activities.
