Getting Help

Communication

We strive to build a learning community around the course throughout the term. Please consider the following guidelines for communication:

  • General Course-Related Questions: Post on Piazza. This promotes a collaborative learning environment. Please avoid messgeging course staff on MS Teams. Teh fastest way to reach the course staff is through Piazza or email!
  • Personal Inquiries: Contact the Instructor or TA directly via email or through Piazza (private message).
  • Re-grading Requests: Submit requests by email within 7 days of grade release, include both your TA and Instructor.

We encourage you to start your homework early after its release to have ample time for understanding and completing it effectively, reducing last-minute stress.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
