We plan to conduct the lectures in the following manner:
- Before every lecture, links to pre-recorded videos for the material to be covered during the lecture will be shared..
- You are encouraged to see these pre-recorded videos before coming to the lecture.
- During the lecture, the instructor will go over the pre-recorded material, conduct discussions, and answer questions from students on the material.
- The video links of the respective lectures and the slides will also be shared after the lecture.
- Please note that as per zoom policy, all zoom lecture recordings will be auto-deleted within one month from the recording date.
