It is going to be a great quarter!

Meanwhile, there are a couple of important things that you should start paying attention to right from this moment. The first is that this course will take place entirely in Moodle. This is the only announcement we're ever going to do in Fenix. So, go to the course's Moodle page to get this show on the road (note: this is our own moodle, not the department's, that you may have used before in other courses, so do follow the link above). All students enrolled in Fenix as of now are enrolled in moodle (Fenix login). If you're late to this party (enrolled after I'm posting this), don't worry: we will hand out an enrollment password at the first lecture.
More importantly, this course is a game! We've completely gamified it, and you'll be getting XP instead of a grade, there will be Achievements, Streaks, a Skill Tree, and more. This can become a bit complex if you just land in it with no preparation, so we've created a Player's Handbook! It is available on the Moodle site, linked directly here, for your convenience.
It is important you read the Player's Handbook. As you know, we are now working under MEPP's intensive teaching regime, so it is essential to hit the ground running. If you take a week to get acquainted with everything, you're probably already missing out. In particular, start thinking about which skill from the Skill Tree you want to get over within Week 1, if you're aiming for the best results (grade...).
In that regard, be advised: there will be (simple tasks to do in class will be evaluated) lab classes right from the first lab. Choose your schedule in Fenix (most of you already did) and attend it. Future labs will be done in groups of three, but we have time to set those up. The first week's labs are individual.
Looking forward to meeting you all!
