Textbook: Algebraic Geometry, lecture notes by Andreas Gathmann.
Also recommended: We will mainly follow Gathmann's notes, adding material taken from other three books when necessary.

Course Description: This will be the first semester for 2-semester series of Introduction to Algebraic Geometry. The second semester will be taught by Prof. Tommaso de Fernex. The current plan is to go through the first half of Andreas Gathmann's lecture notes: Algebraic Geometry.

There will be 4 hours of meeting time each week, roughly 50% on lectures and 50% on problem sessions. Because I believe strongly in active learning, the problem sessions will be the core of the class. The pace of the lectures will be generally brisk and the students are expected to work hard outside the classroom. The participants of the lectures should plan to study at least 1 hour per lecture to keep up with the class. Those who plan to participate in the problem sessions should expect to invest a lot more (and perhaps learn a lot more in return)!

Homework: Problem solving is vital for this class. We will try to work on as many problems as possible from the textbook. I will actively seek groups of volunteers to report their solutions in the problem sessions. (Hints to some problems are available upon request.)
Exams: No exam.
Grading Policy: In accordance with the departmental tradition, A is given to all registered students.
