What is a "hybrid" workshop?

Here "hybrid" means online and in-person. This workshop is primarily an online workshop by Zoom with streaming main room to "Twitch.tv". However, we offer several different ways for you to be able to join according to your needs and situation. You can choose how to attend this workshop from the followings: 

1. On-site participation: You will sit together with other participants at a seminar room (Niels Henrik Abels Hus 209) and follow the online workshop with co-participants and helpers. 
2. Zoom participation as an individual learner: You can participate from anywhere. You will be allocated to a breakout room with a helper for exercise.
3. Zoom participation as a team : You may register as a team, and your team will be kept together during exercise sessions within a breakout room. If you come together with your friends or research group, you will be able to learn a lot more. Even more so if you bring a helper with your group.
4. Follow streaming on Twitch.tv: You will still ask questions on an online collaborative note and work on exercise on your own.      

Capacities are limited for 1, 2 and 3 if the team is without a helper.

Please note that this is a trial of a multi-university course, and there may be small problems but we'll do the best we can.
