This lecture is part of the course on "Probability, Estimation Theory, and Random Signals". Hello, I'm Dr. James Hopgood and I'm teaching you on this course, "Probability, Estimation Theory, and Random Signals." In this video, we're going to look at how to navigate the Learn webpages. When you go into Learn via MyEd or Learn directly, you'll end up on a landing page as shown here. I wanted to show you in this video, just how to navigate these pages and how to use the course guides and how to study this course. So when you go in, you'll see a welcome message. Below it is a link to course materials, and I'll come back to that in a moment. There is a little bit about myself as your course lecturer. You can click on a video to find out a little bit more about myself. This video is played via the university system called Media Hopper Create; it is basically, effectively a YouTube channel. You can maximize the screen. Where possible, we have subtitles. You can play the ... if you click on the button at the bottom, you can play back at multiple speeds. So for example, you can play back at times 1.5 if you want to go a little bit more quickly, depending on how easy it is to follow that. At the bottom of the page there are some learning outcomes. On the left-hand side of the screen you'll see some shortcuts: so we're currently on the "Welcome Page". If you click on course information that will tell you about the full learning outcomes of the entire course. And at the bottom you can find information on the student timetable. Any announcements that will be made will be made from this announcements channel. Say for example, here is an indication of the online lecture link for Friday, but I'll be making extensive use of this as we, as the course progresses. I'll come back to course materials. Library resources, so resource link will take you to the textbooks and there's a separate video about that. Course conversations involves a discussion board and this will be extensively used; And this will be populated with further questions as we continue; and the key box view there will be under course materials. Now this contains two parts. You will find a course Study Guide but also links directly to the course material. If we click on this course study guide, it will give you an indication of what you should do in each week. So for example, in the first week, we should have a look at chapter one, which gives an overview of the course, including course descriptors, learning outcomes, prerequisites, and an overview of signals and systems. We can click on this link and it will tell us about this particular chapter. So we've introductions, aims and objectives. And each chapter is divided into topics. So for example, for chapter one, there are three topics; And within each topic are activities, so for example, there's an introduction video and then there's a  very detailed handout which you can read and this acts as a commentary to the shortened videos which you've been shown. I'm hoping that you're able to read these on screen. But if you're in Edinburgh and would like printed copies, please just let me know. At the end of each chapter, there's actually, if you click on combined materials, then rather than having the individual topics separated out, it is possible to view the full lecture handout as one big file. So for example, this file will have all topics combined into one big chapter for chapter one.  It's also possible if you click on the combined playlist to go to Media Hopper Create. You will need to be logged in but this should give you all the videos in a playlist style. However, it is recommended that rather than watching all the videos in one go, you do follow the habit of watching a video, reading the handout of activities, because this course is specifically designed to be split up to have those sequential activities, one at a time. We can click back on the course study guide at the bottom, which would take us back to the next activity. So for example, after we've done chapter one, we can then go and have a look at chapter two, which is applications of signal processing. Perhaps more to set the context for the whole course, indeed, for the whole MSc program. And then refers technical chapter, chapter three is on the view of basic probability theory. And if I click on that link, it will take us to this, where there  are a number of topics For example, if I click on motivating empirical probability, then we have a summary of the activities that need to be done in this course: a video, a discussion board which discusses the taxi cab problem. If I click on that discussion board, you will then need to go and find the appropriate topic, which may not be in order, depending if you order by date or by thread so we've a discussion of the taxi cab problem. And then finally, there's the lecture handout which accompanies this. And in some parts of the topics, there are exercises which you can do as well. Now many pages, if we go back to the first chapter at the bottom of the video you'll see that there's an icon which says Marked Reviewed that you can use on your individual account to click it, to say that you've reviewed this video and that you've watched it. You can also unclick it if you want to unreview it, so you need to watch it again. So you can use that as an indicator to see what you've watched on what you haven't. So that is a general idea for how we're going to use this course. For hybrid seminars, each one each week, we'll be there to further guide you and to make sure that you are keeping up with material. We hope that this is very self-guided, but you should note in this video, I've shown you an early preview of a course and that these pages will be regularly updated. Any updates for topics from the previous weeks, so for example, if you request further examples of further self-study examples, I will put those back into the appropriate topic but I will send out a course notification and announcement so that you know what's changed but again, you should be able to use the Mark Reviewed button in order to keep track of what you've watched and what you haven't. So this video is really just a very brief guide on how to use Learn and how to find the materials. I hope you find this useful, but do notice, as I've said before, that we can discuss this further on either discussion boards or in person or in a hybrid seminars. Thank you very much.
