Introduction to the class format

You are going to practice self-learning skills, presentation skills, and collaboration skills.
I will provide you study materials, additional information, project mentoring, and feedbacks.
You will understand the depth of knowledge you need to have when claiming that you worked on a project. I will push you to understand that depth of our project and you should be able to extend this requirement to all projects you do.
No spoon-feeding. The more motivated you are, the more you learn.
Hard work will be rewarded beyond a pat on the back.

Form groups

We pre-assigned some students into groups. These groups are required to develop the project diligently. I will catch up with you regularly to make sure of your progress. We will also pre-assign tasks every class for the next class preparation. The opportunity is as great as the responsibilities. Please let us know if you are going to have difficulties attending classes regularly.
Students who are not assigned can feel free to form a group of 2-4 people.
I will record everybody's group assignment, your GitHub name as well as your nickname.
