Office Hours Fall Quarter

Office hours: Join every Friday from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM in Cruess Hall 1105 for an engaging discussion with Prof. Katia Vega. These sessions are designed with you in mind, whether you have questions about the class, want to explore exciting topics, or simply wish to share your thoughts.

We aim to keep things dynamic and interactive. During our sessions, we'll have informal show&tell on various tools and current trends. At the start of each office hour, we'll address your questions and comments. The remainder of our time together will be dedicated to exploring the following topics (or any others you'd like to propose).

By appointment: Please contact Prof. Vega for private appointments on Thursdays noon-1 PM at kvega@ucdavis.edu. Location or Zoom link will be sent by email.

IMPORTANT:

  • Contact your TA for questions about grades, attendance, discussion, assignments, logistics.
  • While Prof. Vega is here to support your learning journey, please note that Prof. Vega won't be able to provide technical support for specific projects during these office hours or online. If you have technical inquiries of your project, please seek assistance through the appropriate online channels.
  • These sessions aren't structured like formal classes, so you won't find course materials here. Instead, consider them as a valuable opportunity to jumpstart your exploration of various topics and tools.
  • Any topic posted in this page are subject to change.
  • If we have many questions about the class, we won't be able to go through these topics.

I look forward to welcoming you to our friendly and knowledge-sharing community during office hours!
