Anglo-americká univerzita v Praze Aktuální informace o koronaviru pro studenty, fakulty a zaměstnance AAU
AAU je globální univerzita se studenty, fakulta, a zaměstnanci z celého světa. Naší prioritou je blaho naší komunity a situaci aktivně sledujeme. Toto je pokračování naší poslední aktualizace zveřejněné 12. března 2020.
Virtual classroom teaching started today, Friday, March 13 for classes that meet on Friday, and will last for the rest of spring semester, 2020.
Make sure you are ready to start your classes:
- Practice logging in to Microsoft Teams and NEO. Students should already have their Microsoft Teams login and password in AAU email – if not, click “password reset” in the Teams app or email it@aauni.edu and ask for a password reset.
- Read your email carefully for instructions from your teachers and AAU’s IT department.
- Faculty will continue to take attendance and the attendance policy still applies. If there is something that will prevent you from joining your class at the regular time, contact your teacher(s) to let them know.
- Learning at a distance is different from in-class learning. Make sure you set aside plenty of time to study in a quiet place.
Reminder: AAU’s mid-term break is rescheduled to March 23 – 27, 2020. That means classes will run normally during the week of April 6 –10. We are rescheduling the break to allow for our teachers to work on adapting in-person classes to virtual classes.
