Online Teaching

Our main tools for online teaching are Canvas and Zoom. Download and get acquainted with Zoom before the first lecture, according to the instructions here: https://studentportal.gu.se/english/e-services/zoom 

If you have the need to record a lecture you need to ask the teacher and fellow students for permission. It is up to each teacher to decide if their Zoom lecture should be recorded and available afterwards. In this course we have decided to conduct zoom lectures 'live' thus, we will not record and upload them on the website.
