P.S. You Should Know

If you are willing to participate in the course, you need to understand that you’ll spend a lot of time building something big together — a new way of learning and collaborating. You’ll become part of a small family and should prepare yourself to find new friends and to invest a lot in this friendship (as you should in any friendship).

The final task of this course will be to split into groups and create new courses like that (and we’ll never stop).

• Respect for each other.
• There is no such thing as a stupid question.
• Each person learns with their own speed, has different background and personality, please respect this.
• Communicating and understanding people that are different from you can be beneficial to both parties, provided mutual respect.
• We are against any discriminations by gender, age, the color of skin, disabilities or any other.
• We respect intellectual property - there is hard work of an author or a group of authors behind all materials that we use.
