ABSTRACT
Planning lessons, especially a sequence of lessons, is an activity like life itself, best engaged in with others. If you find yourself in a department which works and talks together, the resulting dialogue may be the source of new and original ideas. Inevitably, however, there comes a point where you yourself must decide upon the shape of your lessons based upon an inner dialogue of your own and drawing upon your own style, preferences, and personality (for, in my view, teaching is an art not a science). Let me invite you then to join me in this dialogue, and to observe, as far as is possible within a narrative format, the outcome of the decisions I take.
