Learning Format

In the two weekly sessions, teachers introduce key concepts to the students and practice them with small exercises and live coding. Next to the two sessions, students are asked to apply the newly learned concepts in weekly homework and a final project.

Weekly Homework

Every Wednesday, students will receive homework to be submitted by Sunday evening. Homework review is part of the Monday session. There is a requirement for students to complete 80% of the homework throughout the course in order to graduate. Homework is not graded.

ReDI Style

This course is about active participation. You will be asked to work independently on weekly homework to apply your newly learned skills. You are in charge of your learning journey. Are you ready to work hands-on and participate actively in the sessions? Then join us!
