# Kick-off session

In this session we get to know each other as well as the course outline and the
(expected/assumed/planned) trajectory. As a general disclaimer, this course
is currently in a sort of experimental / pre-alpha state, so things will be
produced on the fly, and the outline might change based on our collective
experiences and experimentations.

The specific outline for the kick-off session is:
* 15 min: Intro of outline & lecturer
* 15 min: Intro of participants
* 10 min: Teaching approach and grading requirements
* 40 min: Group exploration - getting to know each other
* 10 min: Setting up communication channels, open space / Q&A

The session slides are available at [slides/session1.html](https://tantemalkah.at/2023/machine-learning/slides/session1.html)
