Reading Group Schedule

For each of the papers, during the following week, there will be a reading group discussion, which the lead will facilitate. Even though there are leads and co-leads, everyone is expected to contribute in the conversation. Additionally, as there are no lecture notes for the discussion, a scribe will record salient points from the discussion; where these can be posted weekly.

• Lead: Facilitator and discussion generator
• Discussion: Everyone should have read the paper for an interesting discussion
• Paper Summary An summary of the paper (one-pager), providing an overview of the work
• Scribe: Notes taking on interesting topics to share out to other students
