Schedule overview¶
The bootcamp runs Tuesday through Friday July 21–August 7, 2020 from 8-10 am PDT via Zoom. Prior to the start of bootcamp proper, we will have two special sessions. At 8 am PDT on July 14, we will have a troubleshooting session for any installation issues. At noon on July 16, we will have our introductory lesson. Enrollees will have a private Zoom link emailed to them. Each lesson is approximately 40 minutes and is followed with a break. The lessons are given live via Zoom, but are recorded for future reference. Enrollees will also have private video links emailed to them.
The TAs have office hours Monday and Wednesday nights, 6-8 pm PDT, starting July 22. Enrollees will be provided with Zoom links.
