    Lecture recording: 
    We aim to record most lectures (NO recording: 18.3. & 1.4.), however, only the lecture part will be recorded, not interactive group work sessions or student presentations, that several lectures include. During many of the lectures, we will have interesting visitors from the industry, thus, please prefer joining online, if you can, as then you can ask questions and we can have more interactive and useful sessions. The main purpose of the recording is that you may check interesting parts from the video afterward while writing the diary.

    Passing the course: 

    This course does NOT have an exam, instead, you will get points from the weekly assignments and lecture learning diaries (diaries start from lecture 2). Typically, you may receive max 15 p /week (assignment 10 p + diary 5 p). To pass the course you need to receive min 50% of the total points. None of the assignments is mandatory, just the total sum counts (assignments: 8x10p+2x20p = 120p, diaries 9x5p=45p, in total max 165p). Instructions on how to pass the course can be found in the Introduction lecture slides. 

    See the grade table below:


    Reading material: 

    The main course material is articles and a few videos. No coursebook. The material will be released always in connection to the next assignment. The main idea is that you get to know the material and do the assignment BEFORE the lecture on that topic. That way the lecture topic is familiar to you and during the lecture we will go deeper into the topic.
