What's It All About?

Thirty one-hour lectures will be given during the semester.

Lectures have been scheduled (by the ANU Timetabling Information Centre) in the time slots:

  Monday   15:00-16:00 MCC T2 (Lecture A)  
  Tuesday  17:00-18:00 COP T  (Lecture B) 
  Thursday 12:00-13:00 MCC T2 (Lecture B)     

There are thirty-nine (3 x 13) lecture slots set aside in the timetable. The Lecture Schedule shows which lecture slots will be used. Check it regularly.

You should attend all scheduled lectures.

If you cannot attend lectures regularly, you are advised to withdraw from COMP1100. If you ignore this advice, you stay enroled at your own risk.

Missed Lectures

If you do miss a lecture, you should:

• Check the lecture outline for the relevant lecture.

• Check the Handouts web page to see if you have missed any handouts.

• Ask your friends and relations for information on the material covered in the lecture.

"I don't go to lectures" is not sufficient reason for you to receive individual tutoring.

Lecture Etiquette

Turn off your mobile phone(s) in the lecture theatre.

If you must have your phone on because you are waiting for a life and death call, have your phone handy so that you can answer it immediately.

Do not come to lectures to chat.
It is one thing to whisper a simple message "See you in the coffee shop after this".
It is another thing to disturb those students who do wish to pay attention.

No hints will be given about assignments/exams if students spend the lecture chatting.

Lecture Outlines

Lecture outlines are not lecture notes.
Lecture outlines do not record everything (of importance) that was said in lectures.

Lecture outlines are made available to assist students who are attending lectures.
Lecture outlines are not provided as an alternative to lecture attendance.

Links to the lecture outlines are available from the Lecture Schedule.
