Lectures and Labs
In each class meeting, we start with the lectures to cover the related concepts and theories.
Then we move on to the hands-on labs to enhance the knowledge through the programming exercises.
Participating the lab exercises is required and it will help students greatly to complete the homework assignments.
During the lab exercises, students can collaborate but individual works are expected.
