AACB On-Line Lectures

(NITTY - Not In The Textbooks Yet)

These presentations are slide-video talks of about 10 min duration with topics selected for short, discreet and currently relevant material.  You need a computer with a sound card.  These files have been encoded for 33.6 kbps modem connection and should stream successfully even with relatively poor connection speed.
