    We'll go over the group project in detail on the first session; the detailed descriptions and evaluation rubrics for each assignment can be found from the folders of each week: for the instructions on the main group project, check the folder 'Week 6'. 

    In case you have any questions regarding the assignments or the course in general, please contact Aleksi at any time at aleksi.m.soini@aalto.fi. Throughout the course I'll notify you of deadlines and assignments with the 'Announcements' tool, so make sure to check that or your Aalto email every now and then. 

    We'll all meet together on the 11th of January on the first session of the course, see you then! 

    Best regards, Aleksi
