• Is it possible to pass the exam without a “live”
lecture?
Definitely, we have every semester students that use solely the online materials to prepare for the exams.
And yes, they achieve good grades.
Some questions…
• So, what is a good learn strategy for this online semester?
You should regularly (!weekly!) watch the videos.
The topics are to some degree “interconnected”.
Thus, it is usually not a good strategy to learn everything last-minute before the exam.
Connect to each other and discuss, discuss and discuss the contents and exercises.
Some questions…
• Find learning partners early in the semester

You can write messages to other participants
