Lesson Videos

This page contains all of the pre-recorded video lessons that were created for the remote semester of Fall 2020. These were incredibly popular and so we are including them again this year (though there are a few differences in content).

In many cases, these videos will go into even more detail than how we covered the material in class (though you are never responsible for material not covered in class). These videos are, for all intents and purposes, the textbook of this course. Each lab and lecture will indicate the videos that are associated with that class day.

Note: These versions of the videos are not closed-captioned. If you need closed captioning support for these videos, please visit the official VOD channel for CS 1110.
