Distance Education in Times of Corona


Page under Continuous Construction!


This illustration, created at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), reveals ultrastructural morphology exhibited by coronaviruses. Note the spikes that adorn the outer surface of the virus, which impart the look of a corona surrounding the virion, when viewed electron microscopically. A novel coronavirus, named Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was identified as the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness first detected in Wuhan, China in 2019. The illness caused by this virus has been named Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).

CoViD-19 - An Interesting Open Data Challenge

From a data science point of view the epidemic is an interesting challenge!

Minute Physics & Aatish Bhatia: How To Tell If We're Beating COVID-19

In my point of view an excellent explanation on how to assess the effectiveness of measures against Corona! Have a look!

Python for Data Science

Currently I prefer Python as versatile scripting language for automated data acquisition, data conversion and data presentation. I will try to incorporate the CoViD-19 challenge in my Scientific Programming lecture!

Software Installation on Private Student Computers

Several of my courses are related to programming. For distance education it is more important than ever that students install the required development environments and other useful software products locally on their own machines.

The following courses are concerned:

  • AMC (EE_4.03)
    Applied Measurement an Control
  • SciProg (EE_2.06)
    Fundamentals of Scientific Porgramming
  • Phy2 (EE_2.03)
    Physics 2 (Thermodynamics, Radiation, Heat Transfer)

Activity 01: Install and Run a Virtual Linux Machine
