Help is Available

Their hours, Sunday through Thursday, are posted below.
Give us feedack on the UTAs - Visit Professor Duvall or the graduate TAs, Hieu Bui and Yan Chen, during the day.

If you cannot make our office hours, please use email to set up an appointment. - Post your issue on the course discussion board.
Our goal is simple: to help you learn — both inside and outside the classroom. If you have questions, we want to answer them. We hold office hours just for the purpose of helping you, either one-on-one or in small groups. No matter how busy we may look, during office hours, you have priority over everything else. If you have a problem or question, come by and we can talk about it — do not put it off.
UTA Office Hours
You can bring code on your laptop or have it accessible (e.g., via Dropbox or USB drive) so the UTA can use another computer.
On West, hours will be held in The Link on Lower Level 1 of Perkins Library. They should be near the cluster of chairs between Group Study 7 and Classroom 4 (see this map of the Link).

Check the discussion board to find out where the UTA is sitting.
Posting to the Bulletin Board
If you have any questions about the course, post your questions here because it is seen by all the course staff as well as all the students. The discussion board will be monitored regularly and responses posted to questions that have not previously been answered.
You should also regularly read and contribute to the course discussion board as it is a useful place for posting questions that are likely to be of interest to the rest of the class. You are encouraged to post responses to questions as well as ask them. Before posting a question, please make sure that you have read all previous messages and that your question has not yet been discussed.
In order to get the fastest possible response, it is important that you are as clear as possible when describing your problem. To this end, include exact error messages or steps you followed. Finally, please include evidence of trying to solve the problem yourself before posting.
When posting code, be very careful not to post so much as to give away your solution to your classmates. Indeed, such posts may be considered cheating!
Post as little code as possible in order to describe your problem. In many cases, you may be able to post only the single line that is causing the problem. In cases where it is necessary to post more, you may want to replace some parts with comments representing pseudocode if possible. Never post complete functions. If you are in doubt, post a private message to the course staff.
