Our format

1. One module a week
2. Videos are roughly 2-3 hours total per module
3. It is recommended you at least watch the videos
1. Doing exercises would be even better
2. Exercises expected to add another 2-3 hours per week
4. We will do a brief overview of the topics every week, but it wont be enough to learn the material
5. Most of the time will be spent discussing points in more detail, looking at the papers, reviewing material in more depth to deepen our understanding or clarify things that didn’t make sense
