The course manager requested us to attend the public talk where she explained why our course had been cheaper: each year a few places were reserved for people prepared to be the subject of a study, in order to research and develop the course or create other courses. We had been such subjects of study the previous year but now there were no places left for that, so we could not get that cheaper price this year and our course would be the standard rate.
In the computers room, I showed some people what I did, and I also had to work on my things. They were big screens where we could see people helping us or we could put our work there to show too. Some times I had to change computers, if I was sitting at one that could do things that others could not do, and people needed those functions. Most of the time the room was almost empty, some times there would be three or four other people using computers too. People helped me with my computer things from rooms far away, using the computer as means of communication, but also seeing me from the cctv.
