How this course is set up
Course website
This website serves as the central hub for all files for the course as well as weekly agendas & announcements. Use the navigation pane to view in-class lecture slides & practice code and Assignments.
Blackboard
Blackboard will be used for assignment submission and grade reporting only.
Piazza
Piazza will be our preferred platform for questions about homework, code, and general course questions. The system is integrated with Blackboard and is highly catered to getting you help quickly and efficiently from classmates and the instructor. Rather than emailing questions to the instructor, you should post your questions on Piazza. Email should be reserved for personal questions such as those regarding absences or grades. Piazza can be accessed via the home page on Blackboard.
