Short instructions for watching the demo lectures

All SBI courses (including demo courses) use Moodle, a popular e-learning platform, for making course materials available to students and for communication between students and teachers. Since Moodle is password protected, please login as a guest and use the following password "demo-vgu".

Course materials include course and instructor information (syllabus and staff), calendar, schedule, and course modules. Each module may consist of a lesson, an exercise, the solution to the exercise, additional literature, a self-test, materials for download, etc. Please note that only one module of each demo course has been made available in parts. This module is the one with section number 1, if there are more modules listed.

The normal flow of a course is that one module per week is taught, following a strict weekly rhythm throughout the semester (appr. 15 weeks). The same applies to exercises and assignments. Student solutions are usually due after one week, before the next module starts.
