Is there a class GitHub repository?

Indeed. You can find it at https://github.com/Harvard-IACS/2025-E115.

Is it necessary for me to be present for the live lectures?

While E115 students are encouraged to attend live online lectures, attendance is not officially recorded. However, participating in live sessions is highly beneficial as it allows for real-time interaction with the teaching staff, which can greatly enhance your understanding of the material.

It’s worth mentioning that all lectures are videotaped, so you can watch them later if you can’t attend. However, missing the live sessions means you’ll miss the opportunity for real-time interaction with the instructors and your classmates.

Can I view the video recordings for the course?

Absolutely. All students enrolled in E115 will have access to video recordings.

Can I audit this class? All course materials are publicly accessible, and you’re welcome to use them as long as you follow our policies. However, only registered students have access to Canvas, live streams, and recorded videos.
