There are three 1-hour lectures each week, and Ravi has indicated the new
website for checking most up-to-date timetable is:
ttb.utoronto.ca
During the pandemic the lectures were online prerecorded or live and also recorded and you can view these past recordings if you like. Note that the live lectures are reduced quality of video due to the video switcher (Black Magic ATEM Pro) limiations whereas the offline lectures are at 4k 60p resolution. Our preferred video-conferencing program is Jitsi, which is free open-source. We try to support the open-source community whenever possible.
We'll begin by using https://meet.jit.si/ECE516
Note that it is case-insensitive, so you can also use:
https://meet.jit.si/ece516
e.g. ECE516 = ece516 = Ece516, etc..
Regarding quality, reliability, ease-of-use, etc., we rank Jitsi first, Bb Collaborate is our second choice, and Zoom is our third (last) choice.
During the pandemic, lectures were posted online as videos, and Thursday's time 2pm to 3pm slot was an online meetup initially. Labs were online as well.2022 schedule (to be updated): Labs begin starting 2022jan26 (no labs 1st and 2nd week), as indicated by curly brace bracket parentheses on the Wednesday indicated below, leaving lots of time in April should the pandemic lead us away from an in-person exam (e.g. perhaps an online project if the omicron or pi or rho variant of CoViD brings changes to scheduling):
