Teaching and Learning |
How You will get Taught
Due to the Plague1 the module will be mostly online. While this is good in a couple of ways: You get to study when you want, no trekking into the Uni at 9AM, or having to buy extortionate Starbucks coffee. It does mean that you are more responsible for your own learning.
Module materials will be delivered through the following:
Offline Pre-Reading
Each week you will have some offline pre-reading work. This will usually consist of some reading materials (hosted here), videos. and depending on the topic, a demo task to help you work through the concepts.
!!! tip "Reading the Pre-Reading"
It's going to make your life so much easier if you read the materials before the "lecture" takes place (or at least in the same week as the materials).
It means, at the least, you can ask questions relevant to bits you dont understand in the Lecture session.
Also, there's a lot to cover, stuff builds on other topics, and trying to cram in the last few weeks probably isn't going to work[^hate-failing]
Online "Lecture"
We will also have an online Lecture / Lab session.
In these sessions we will have:
- A recap of the week's materials, as a short2 lecture.
- Q&A Session on the topics
- Walkthrough / Practical tasks related to the work we do.
!!! important
I will be recording the lectures, so you can go back over them later
However, the notes about doing things in the relevant week still stand. There's 11 weeks of materials,
I suspect we will be having 2 hour lectures, cramming 22+ hours of videos into one week of learning isn't going to be pleasant.
