===Notes on how the semester will proceed===

*The semester will proceed online. If you don't have access to a computer and a network connection, let me know by email. 
 
====Lectures====
*A link to video lectures will be posted in the table above for each remaining lecture in the semester. The video lectures will be posted on YouTube, so all you need is a web browser to view them. The video lectures are not interactive. Office hours will be regularly provided if you have questions about the lectures or any other question you may have. I am always available by email as usual.  

====Office hours====
*Office hours will be setup using [https://concordia-ca.zoom.us/ Zoom]. See "Course Schedule and Contacts" above for the next scheduled online office hours. You can participate in a zoom meeting using a browser or by downloading the zoom client application. When you join a meeting, the browser will give you the choice. Installing the zoom client is not necessary for you to participate. Note that such meetings are by default open to anyone that has the link to the zoom meeting. You can join with a camera feed or using audio only. If you really require a one-to-one online conversation, let me know and I shall arrange it.      

====Assignments and project====
*The assignments/project will continue to be carried on as we had initially planned. The only difference will be how the demonstrations will be done. For each deliverable, we will give you a link to a Google sheet (as we did before) so that you can schedule a time slot where you will do your assignment demonstration. Then, at the time of the demonstrations, a zoom meeting will be setup, so that you can join the meeting during your allocated time slot. Zoom allows you to share your computer screen during the meeting, so you will be able to demonstrate to the marker that your application behaves as required by sharing your computer screen. To preserve your privacy, we shall make sure that the demonstration meetings are not made public in any way. If you want to try it out, join us at one of the online office hours meetings. 

====Deadlines====
*As you may have seen, the University has mandated that all submission deadlines be pushed after March 30th. See the updated schedule in the section [[#Lecture Schedule|Lecture Schedule]] above.

====Final examination====
*As per the decision of the University, no in-person final examinations will be held. There will still be a final examination, but it will be a home examination held on April 30th.
