Real-Time Instruction
Courses meet for live, online classroom discussion with their instructor and peers. Students engage in daily problem sets, work with Stanford students who serve as teaching assistants, and attend virtual guest lectures from mathematicians and others who use mathematics in their respective fields.
Student Engagement
Active participation is key to creating an online community of engaged learners, and students are expected to participate in class on camera, and to collaborate with their peers, instructors, and teaching assistants.
Attendance Policy
Participants must be fully involved in the program and should be remotely present for all program classes and activities. Participants are required to attend their course at the specified daily class time with their microphone and camera on.
All activities are designed to provide participants with a well-rounded experience both inside and outside of the classroom. Participants should not have any non-program commitments that directly conflict with required program activities.

Daily Expectations
In general, students can expect to have roughly 3-5 hours of academic work per weekday, in addition to the daily live class period. Outside of the scheduled class period, students are able to set their own schedule for when they work on class assignments and problem sets.
