* <span style="background:#4682B4; color:#FFFFFF; font-size: 100%;"> July 1st</span> Updated Final Exam Rules:
 +
** Considering the inefficiency of using Zoom, Exam will be held offline (take-home exam). Zoom is not used!
 +
** Considering that there might be a problem in Ninova system, along with Ninova link final exam will be shared with another link in this web page, and also students can email their exam sheets directly to altunmus@itu.edu.tr, or they can submit to Ninova. For submitting the exams, I suggest Ninova since emails can be filtered or due to size limitations they might be rejected; students take their own risks for such problems.
 +
** Exam starts at 12:00 on July 2nd.
 +
** Exam is open-source with the duration of 2,5 hours that includes writing the answers to the answer sheets in a legible way and then uploading them to the system as a single PDF file.
 +
** Before the exam 10 minutes before at 11:50, I will open a Zoom meeting to have your questions.
 +
* <span style="background:#4682B4; color:#FFFFFF; font-size: 100%;"> June 8th</span>  Final exam rules are as follows:
 +
** Exam will be held online (live) for 2-3 hours; your camera and microphone (if needed) should be ON during the exam.
 +
** Exam will be a classic written exam and same for all sections taking the course.
 +
** Exam duration to be given to you (between 2-3 hours) includes writing the answers to the answer sheets in a legible way and then uploading them to the system as a single PDF file.
 +
** In the course of the exam, a student may be asked to take a break from the exam and answer our questions or show us where they are with their cameras, provided that it does not exceed 3 minutes.
 +
** During the exam, the student should not change or leave the exam location.
