• We plan to utilize SNU's eTL system in three ways below:
(1) Class announcements: Please check your email regularly, and the eTL course page.
(2) Assignment submissions: Be ready to submit your homework and quiz through the assignment
submission links on the eTL course page. More information during the classes.
(3) Online lectures (if switched): Make sure to first log in to eTL, then access the Zoom online
lecture link via the course page. This is to let the eTL system check your attendance automatically.
