Attendance on weekly sessions is mandatory and activity during the sessions affects the final grade. The classroom is also available for independent team work according to the course schedule. See the schedule for details.

On the third week the teams start working on the project. The project advances in two week iterations called sprints. There are requirements for each sprint.
