If you have questions during the exam, send your questions either through Inspera to the administration (which will collect and forward them to us) or, if you wish, send them directly to us:

nacia@ifi.uio.no AND egork@ifi.uio.no

We will publish the answers on the course web page!

I will still be looking into alternatives, but UiO has approved only Padlet, Mattermost and Talkwall. No discourse or Campuswire or Piazza. I know that Padlet and Mattermost are not the most popular, and I have never tried Talkwall. So let us try it :-)

The link is https://talkwall.uio.no/
The wall is here: https://talkwall.uio.no/#/wall?id=60100833ca66d3209815dee7

You join using the Talkwall PIN: 5837

The first task is “ASK US (140 chars max”). A bit tweet-like. You can use several 140-character posts, though.

We were planning to start becoming physical :-) or at least hybrid, but we will have to be digital for a while more. Watch this space for info.

Many have already asked whether the lectures will be recorded. Yes, we always record lectures and publish them in the correct row of the "Schedule" together with the slides.  

PLEASE NOTE that it is difficult to maintain the Web-sites for both IN3020 and IN4020. We will update the IN4020 site only if there is any info or schedule that differs form IN3020. SO PLEASE FOLLOW THE IN4020 STORY ON THE IN3020 SITE but do check whether there is anything new here as well. We will also note any info that is relevant for IN4020 also on the IN3020 site.
