This subject is a component of the Gordon-MIT Engineering Leadership program and is also an engineering school-wide elective open to all undergraduate students. Participation is required in online lectures (via Zoom) at the scheduled time (Mondays, 7pm-9pm, Eastern Time) as well as a recitation (times TBD during the first week of class). The course centers on a significant amount of discussion and small-group work during class time, as well as synchronous work among student project team members, so students should take this course in Fall 2020 if they will generally be able to participate synchronously. Students with concerns about their ability to participate synchronously should reach out to Eileen Milligan (emillign@mit.edu). Class sessions will generally not be recorded. This course’s main project requires a lab kit for use at students’ residential location. Information about how to acquire the lab kit will be provided to students during the first week of class.
course website

This subject is a component of Gordon-MIT Engineering Leadership Program Year 1 (GEL 1). All sessions will be hosted virtually (via Zoom) on Fridays, with separate sections occurring at 9-11am, 1-3 and 3-5pm (Eastern Time). As ELL centers on teamwork-based experiential learning, the sessions will be conducted for live, synchronous participation of all enrolled students. Students with concerns about their ability to participate synchronously should reach out to Eileen Milligan (emillign@mit.edu). All students will be assigned to teams during the first week of classes and are expected to participate with their team throughout the semester (attendance is required weekly). Given the distributed nature of the team-based activities, ELL is not typically conducive to being recorded and therefore cannot be made up outside of scheduled class time. When required, lab kits will be shipped to remote students and other materials will be distributed digitally via email or the course Canvas site. Students who anticipate participation issues or absence for a given week due to extenuating circumstances are asked to contact the GEL instructional staff. Course assignments, quizzes, leadership reflections, and other deliverables will be posted to the course Canvas site.

As EL is a discussion-based, seminar-style class with small group break-out activities, the class will be conducted for live, synchronous participation of all enrolled students. Students with concerns about their ability to participate synchronously should reach out to Eileen Milligan (emillign@mit.edu). Some class segments that are conducive to being recorded will be recorded and posted to the class Canvas site for reference; however, live attendance at the online Zoom class sessions is required weekly. Students who anticipate participation issues or absence for a given week due to extenuating circumstances are asked to contact the instructor. Course assignments, pre-reading materials, and other deliverables will be posted to the course Canvas site.

The class will be delivered online and attendance is required during regularly scheduled sessions. The reason for this is that the class is highly experiential in design, where students will engage in role play and other skill practice activities during class. We plan to record all of our class sessions and make them available in Canvas for future viewing. If a significant number of graduate students reside in time zones where attendance during class times is difficult, I will try to accommodate these situations once registration is complete.

The class revolves around independent term projects sponsored by leaders in the sports industry, and will be in the format of online synchronous (TR 1-2.30pm). These projects are executed by small teams of students, mixing undergrads, grads and business school students. At least one of the two classes will be independent team working sessions to advance the project, mentored by one of the instructors. The working sessions require all the team members to be present while they are happening, since they consist of technical/strategic/communication discussions around the status of each team’s specific project. In addition of the work sessions, we will host a variety of workshops (data analysis, leadership, written and oral communication) that will be recorded, but they will also require active participation from the students. We will also have seminars by leaders in the field to discuss industries and innovation opportunities within sports technology, and these will be in the form of informal conversations and Q&A to make the experience as interactive as possible. Our intention is to heavily emphasize the teamwork and community-building components of the class, hence synchronous attendance is required.

The class will be taught entirely online. Synchronous attendance at lectures is strongly encouraged, since this is a seminar course, but recordings and lecture notes will also be posted for students who cannot attend lectures at the scheduled time. Students will be expected to give presentations on their final projects. These presentations will be synchronous by default to encourage discussion, but in case of unavoidable conflicts or extreme timezone differences, students will be able to prerecord their presentations.

Lectures will be synchronously recorded. 6.S081 will have no exams and students will be graded mostly on programming labs (incl. individual check-off meetings). We are also hoping to hold interactive, online recitation-style class meetings instead of some of the synchronous lectures to connect with smaller groups of students at a convenient time. How this will work we don't yet, and partially depends on the enrollment.

The current plan is to have some sort of “live” lecture during the scheduled time (MW2), but to offer at least one alternative time for students whose timezones prevent them from attending that time slot. There is a good chance that all lecture material (recordings, etc.) will be available online as well. The exact format of these lectures — a more traditional live lecture, or more of a flipped classroom model — is not yet decided.

Professors Jack Wisdom (EAPS) and Gerald Jay Sussman will teach this class entirely online, with synchronous lectures on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 1400--1500 EDT (2:00PM--3:00PM). We will run our evening laboratory, each Wednesday from 1900--2200 EDT (7:00PM--10:00PM). We expect students to actively participate in all of the meetings, so it may be difficult for students who are in some time zones. If a significant number of students want the hours to be modified, we will be happy to adjust, as appropriate, (one advantage of online teaching is that there is not a problem with allocating a classroom!) The times can be renegotiated by the class in the first few meetings of the term.

We also invite students individually and in groups to drop in (online) to discuss problems with us at other times. We will try to make ourselves very accessible in these strange circumstances.

Lectures will be given online at the scheduled times. Class participation will count towards the grade, but if you cannot participate in lectures, participating in other ways will be sufficient to score full points. We will post the lecture notes and recordings of lectures on the course web site. There will be no exams. Grades will mainly be based on problem sets, scribing a lecture, a course project and class participation. The project will require small group meetings to discuss progress, but we will schedule these at mutually agreeable times. No special equipment is required, but a tablet can be helpful for collaborative work.
course website

6.852 (Distributed Algorithms) will consist of lectures, problem sets, and term projects. No exams. All activities should be doable remotely.

1. Lectures:

These will be held over Zoom. We like interaction, so we think it would be great if everyone could attend in person, at least most of the time, and ask questions and offer comments. However, for cases where this is not feasible, we will record the Zoom sessions and post the recordings on the course Stellar web site. We will also post Powerpoint lecture slides.

We don't require lecture attendance, but we will encourage it by having "class participation" count as part of a small "subjective" component of the grade (which also includes other things such as meeting with staff during office hours and helping with grading problem sets). If you cannot participate in lectures, participating in other ways will be sufficient for you to score full points on participation.

2. Problem sets:

We encourage group discussion of key ideas for solving the problems, though you must write up solutions on your own. Thus, you might want to join a problem set discussion group. We will set up some kind of sign-up mechanism to help you find others to work with. You can meet with your group however you like, in person or remotely. Problem sets will be submitted on-line, most likely using Gradescope.

Teams of students will grade the pset problems, working under the supervision of the course TAs. This will all be done on-line. Each student will grade only a very few problems, for the entire class.

3. Term projects:

A highlight of the course is the group term projects. These can be theoretical research, experimental research, or reading projects. You will have wide latitude in choosing projects (within the general scope of distributed computing theory); we will suggest some possibilities but these are only suggestions.

You should work in groups of 2-4 students. Again, we will help with a mechanism to help you find others to work with, but then you can meet with your group however you like. Course projects will have suggested "mentors" (a member of the staff or an outside person), who will meet with the group using a mutually convenient method.

4. Office hours:

The course instructor and the TAs will hold regular office hours, at a variety of times that should accommodate students in different time zones. If no office hours are possible for you, we will work with you to find additional times. In general, the course staff will work with you to find mutually acceptable meeting times.
course website

All lectured content is prerecorded or will be recorded for offline viewing. But also required is synchronous problem solving with other students. Times for synchronous session(s) will be scheduled to accomodate students' schedules and timezones -- the current time of Wednesdays 2:30-5 should be treated as tentative, and will change (and possibly split into multiple times) if students express the desire to do so. Please sign up on https://lists.csail.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/6849-students if you might be interested in taking the class, so you can help decide the schedule.

Drawing tablet recommended for online collaboration, so be sure to apply for one if you don't have one. We'll be using a bunch of custom software tools for online collaboration (including Prof. Demaine's Coauthor and Cocreate), which aim to reproduce the in-person experience as best as possible. Join us to help make this possible!

We will have live (synchronous) lectures. Live lectures give an opportunity to ask questions about the lecture material, to engage in an open-ended discussion about research papers, and to provide some sense of community among the students. We encourage students to attend these live lectures when possible. We will record the live lectures and post them for asynchronous viewing, for students that were unable to join the live lecture.

This term, 6.002 will be taught virtually. “Live” lectures, recitations and tutorials will be presented at designated hours via Zoom. While “live” participation is encouraged, recordings of the lectures and recitations will be available for those not able to attend the sessions live, with means provided (e.g., via Piazza) for asynchronous responses to questions. We will seek to provide sufficient coverage of tutorial hours to satisfy the time zone constraints of participating students. There will be no lab component of 6.002 this term. In its place we will provide an expanded treatment of analysis and design methods to give students an especially strong foundation in circuits and electronics. In a future term we plan to offer a separate 3-unit lab class that can be taken by those completing this term’s class.

6.111 will be taught virtually with the option for on-campus work as needed, however the entire course can be completed fully remotely. “Live” lectures will take place on video-conferencing software. While “live” participation is encouraged, recordings of the lectures will be available for those not able to attend the sessions live, with means provided (e.g., via Piazza) for asynchronous responses to questions. Students will be mailed/provided a full FPGA kit for the fall term that must be returned at the end of the semester. Lab assignments will all be capable of being completed remotely using student computers, FPGAs, and additional circuit components provided in the kits. We don't require a tablet computer for the course, however a computer that is capable of running Vivado (on either Windows or Linux or on Mac using a VM of Windows of Linux) will be needed. Feel free to email jodalyst@mit.edu with questions about details of the hardware and/or other options/plans. We expect to have the 6.111 lab space open for most of the day on weekdays at this point for on-campus students to use like a normal semester, however presence in the lab will not be required to do the lab assignments or the final project. For final projects, if additional parts are needed, they can be mailed to students.

Due to the very hands-on nature of our course we will be limiting enrollment to students with campus access. Lectures are interactive and feature a weekly "show and tell" and as such (virtual) attendance will be required. We will be pushing for as much remote lab work as possible but students will likely need to come to EDS for a few hours per week. Our typical large group machine building project will be cancelled as it cannot be run with proper distancing protocols. Section sizes will be limited to 10 students this semester to reduce lab loads. Applications to join the course will go live after the first lecture.
