You should have the textbook by the time the session starts. I'd
also strongly recommend that you spend some time with lessons one and
two on the writing system get some practice with that before we start.
The script is not really something we can teach by email.
This
discussion on the forum has links to several examples of people's
handwriting. And at the bottom of the page of
this there are
examples with arrows for writing direction.
For this session there are two guides, Bert de Haan (Forum: Bert) and
Fernand Lemaire (Forum: Skylax). Their job is to answer questions,
check over the assignments and to give helpful information when
needed.
In addition to the mailing list, there will be Web based
applications for you to turn in your exercises and for the guides to
correct and comment on your work. We'll have more details here when
that system has solidified a bit more.
