The plenary parts of Friday’s session will be streamed through Zoom, with the opportunity for half of the students to attend on location (due to Corona restrictions, classroom capacity is limited to 50%). Attendance will rotate weekly.

During the afternoon tutoring sessions, you will be working and receiving tutoring in groups. Groups have been preassigned to ensure a mix of disciplinary backgrounds. During the first half of this semester-long course, the groups will change weekly. Tutoring takes place on location, with the opportunity to participate remotely. The schedule below indicates the tutoring timeslot and zoom link (Z1 or Z2, see above) for each group. The "x" marks the time the group can also work on location.
