Information for next lesson

Dear Students,

At the Faculty's request, Friday's lesson will be done synchronically [meaning that you will have to connect from an electronic device]. Also, attendance will not be taken into consideration

So, as you know an online [synchronous] lesson means that:

(1) 15 minutes before the synchronous (online) lesson starts, please log to ‘u-cursos’ ('Clase Virtual' section) and connect to the lesson from there

(2) Once the lesson is finished, I will be sending you 2 items,

(2.1) The teaching material (PPT file and an audio file), if required, and

(2.2) The lesson will be recorded for you to have an archive to look at. This video link will be attached to the 'Clase Virtual' section, in other words, the audio-visual lesson archive will be saved on ‘u-cursos’

Any questions you may have, either in English or Spanish, please feel free to write back.

Have a nice weekend
Best Regards
