my other points stand.
but other than that; you said that they don't encourage f2f contact? but fak them just go to the IT office and be like "yo can anyone up in this bitch help me" and I am sure someone will come rushing to your assistance
how am I supposed to know that?
maybe you need to go over you method of study. for example I go over my notes and what not before the lecture so I understand it when the explain it in the lecture
everyone else in your classes would probably be in the same boat; right?
well if the lecturer is...
then forget lecture recording and use books, internet etc etc
if the lecturer doesn't want people to download it then it is his final say because It is his intellectual property. If you don't want to miss the lectures then physically go to them
Mine just used to be black and white also which some scanned in diagrams, but I was going to be looking at these for thr whole year so I made them pretty in the hope that I would study more
