If you find the book difficult to read you can alternatively start reading the book written by Horst Friebolin: "Basic One-and Two-dimensional NMR Spectroscopy", third revised edition, ISBN: 3-527-29513-5.
The web resource:
http://www.magritek.com/products/terranova/videos/
is a good place to learn nmr. These videos will be used in the lectures. Videos 8-10 is not curriculum in KJM 5250 but constitute the extra curriculum (introductory MRI) that is contained in the cloned PhD course KJM 9250.
The web pages:
http://www.cis.rit.edu/htbooks/nmr/inside.htm
is quite helpful and you can learn a lot yourself watching them again and again.
The most important part of the course consists of the combined colloquium experiments which will be selected from the following two web pages:
