Please use one of the following means to get help in this class

Teams:

Teams is a forum for more informal interaction with your fellow students. It is also where TAs and the Instructors will hold office hours.

https://teams.microsoft.com/

ED Discussions:

This ongoing Q&A forum is a valuable resource for getting official answers to your questions (and often helpful student responses also). It's good to use the search box before posting, to see if your question has already been addressed.

Instructor Contact Information:

Communication Policy

• Online threaded discussions are public messages, and all writings in this area will be viewable by the entire class or assigned group members. If you prefer that only the instructors see your communication, then use email, and be sure to identify yourself and identify the class in the subject line.
• Posting of personal contact information is discouraged (e.g. telephone numbers).
• Your first line of assistance should be to take a break, skim through the book, lectures, notes, and the Internet. If you cannot find the answer yourself after some searching, you should then communicate with your fellow classmates (usually using TEAMS).
• If you and your classmates cannot find a solution, then asking the TA or instructor by discussion board (usually using Ed Discussion).
• For any other questions, email is the preferred method (Maher.Elshakankiri@oregonstate.edu). I will check email somewhat frequently and will respond to course-related questions within 48 hours if possible.

Help Sessions:

You can ask questions to the instructor or teaching assistants (TAs) during their weekly help sessions (send a direct message on Teams).
