Course goals
Planning to chess is like oxygen to a human brain. Without the former, the latter would simply cease to exist. If you do not make plans, then your game will becoming meaningless. 'Plan' in some ways is the bigger picture in chess. Understanding the potential outcome of a situation after 5,10 or even 20 moves might sound overwhelming in the beginning, but in the end it all boils down to simple logic. In this seminar we will learn to understand the course of a game by identifying important positional aspects in the middlegame.
