Notes:
For all details, refer to the on-line syllabus at http://www.astro.utoronto.ca/~ast201 (also PDF). The tutorials are done in smaller groups and are meant to help you understand the material, discuss concepts that may be unclear for assignments, go over exam questions, etc. All contact is via your tutorial TA, so you need to sign up even if you do not intend to attend.
Very helpful online tutorials can be found at www.masteringastronomy.com; we strongly recommend you do them. Some of the questions will be used for quizzes and exams.
