Journal ArticleDOI
An Introductory Course
TL;DR: In the early days of the University of California, Berkeley, the classes in the freshman and sophomore courses are taught usually in sections of less than twenty students as mentioned in this paper, and the upper-class work is done in a few classes and many seminars, the latter being a definitely small group that can meet around the conference table for papers and discussions.
