    Remote lecturing provisions

    Lectures for this course will take place on Microsoft Teams (due to the closure of the university for COVID-19). I don't like the platform, but let us use what the university provides.

    Please send me an e-mail if you would like to get added manually to the 'team' for the course. Also, you are strongly invited to sign up for the course on Moodle, so that you can get updates and messages on the 'annunci' forum mailed to you automatically.

    Useful material
