Occasionally throughout the semester, we will have class chats on Zoom. These are optional “drop-in” sessions for students to ask questions, share or just chat. There are no mandatory sessions, but students are encouraged to attend if schedules allow. It will be a way for us to check and keep in touch. All sessions will be recorded. The following are scheduled:
- April 12 at 1pm PT : INFO 200 Research Paper Q & A Session: We will go over any questions you might have about the Research Paper. Please see the front page of our canvas site for Zoom links and passwords.
