Link Tested, Keanu-Approved

Here's a trio of links. The first one is a guide to reading philosophy that might help you if you're having trouble understanding the assigned readings.

Jim Pryor's Guide to Reading Philosophy

The next two relate to epistemology and skepticism, which are what we'll be talking about starting with the Descartes reading. Both are about the movie The Matrix. The first is pretty straightforward (If Neo read it, he'd say 'whoa'), but the second is a little more advanced (If Neo read it, he'd say 'huh?').
