<br>The First course：
<br>
<br>作業系統CS342302第一堂課將在9/13(一)開始。第一天採「線上同步」方式使用Google Meet進
<br>行。 會議室連結為
<br>(學號單號) https://reurl.cc/a9pR5X 或
<br>(學號雙號) https://reurl.cc/95EVyv
<br>
<br>不論已選上或欲加簽的同學都務必出席。11:00-11:15 會考一個線上測驗。測驗的連結會貼在 
<br>Google Meet 。 11:15以後測驗會準時結束，將不再開啟。另一班周志遠老師的OS課也會同時考
<br>同樣的測驗，所以未選上的同學只需要填一份測驗含加簽資料，兩班會一併分配加簽人數。
<br>
<br>[注意如果已經選上其中一班，不可退選再加簽以達到換班的目的。一旦退選，視同本學期放棄
<br>修課機會。
<br>
<br>測驗實際分數不影響總成績，但是如果不考會從總成績扣分。 測驗目的是為了讓同學自我判定一
<br>些修課前應該具備的知識，因此請各位同學誠實作答。
<br>
<br>最後再次提醒，無論有沒有要加簽，一定要參與本次小考。謝謝。
<br>
<br>The OS course CS342302 will be held online via Google Meet on the first day 
<br>(9/13). The li<x>nk to the meeting room is
<br>(odd student ID#) https://reurl.cc/a9pR5X or
<br>(even student ID#) https://reurl.cc/95EVyv
<br>
<br>Attendance is required, whether you are officially enrolled or petitioning to 
<br>add this course. Between 11:00-11:15, we will give an online quiz, and the 
<br>li<x>nk will be posted on Google Meet. The quiz system will be closed promptly 
<br>at 
<br>11:15 and will not be reopened. The same quiz will also be administered in the 
<br>other OS course by Prof. Jerry Chou. Students petitioning to add either course 
<br>will only need to take the quiz once, and the two courses will coordinate in 
<br>handling the add petitions.
<br>
<br>[Note] If you are officially enrolled in either course, you may not drop it 
<br>and then petition to add so you can switch instructors. Once dropped, you give 
<br>up your opportunity to take either OS course this semester.
<br>
<br>The actual score on the quiz will ont impact your course grade, but if you do 
<br>not take the course, points will be deducted from your course grade. The 
<br>purpose is to assess the prerequisite knowledge as early feedback for students 
<br>to strengthen their background knowledge. Therefore, take the quiz with 
<br>academic honesty.
<br>
<br>Again, a reminder that all students in this course, whether officially 
<br>enrolled or petitioning to add, are required to take the prerequisite quiz on 
<br>9/13 11:00-11:15. This will be the only opportunity.
