Distance teaching

As part of the measures to combat the Covid-19 virus, FEE info, teaching will be performed online starting from March 23, until revocation.

You can contact the teachers per email (see the top of this page) or use the discussion forum. You are welcome to let us know your particular situation. We understand that these are extraordinary circumstances.

Online interactive lectures will not take place as part of distance teaching. On the lectures schedule page, we will upload our expanded lecture slides with additional information so they are more self-contained. In addition, there is an excellent Intro to AI course from UC Berkeley that covers most of the necessary curriculum. At the corresponding entry in the lectures schedule, we will provide a link to the online lecture we ask you to watch. Additional resources are listed here. Questions about the lecture content can be presented during the computer labs / seminars.

Computer labs will take place online in the usual scheduled times, i.e. Mondays 12:45 to 14:15. We will use the BigBlueButton.org platform - more details below. The computer labs can be used to ask questions to the lecture content which you are asked to study prior to the lab.

Quizzes. There will be practice quizzes which will be discussed interactively during the labs. You will get the assignment prior to the lab.

Quizzes for points that you were used to submit on paper during the labs will now be submitted using the Brute platform

Programming assignments in Brute are still valid; for some of them, we have already shifted the submission dates. You will have a chance to discuss them during the interactive online labs.

The solution for distance teaching will be BigBlueButton.org. There is a local university installation and the identity management is integrated with Brute. You will receive an email invitation to a virtual room. To get an idea, we recommend you to watch this video.

As a backup, we have tested university instance of zoom.us, Google hangouts, and MS Teams.

We're expanding the materials, such that you can study also independently in case you cannot participate in the online interactive labs - for technical reasons, for example (e.g., limited Internet access).
