General information

CSE 190z is a support class for STARS students enrolled in CSE 142 (in Winter) and CSE 143 (in Spring) to ensure success. The course will include reinforcing concepts through lecture, practice quizzes, and problem sets. Students are expected to attend check-in meetings each week to evaluate their progress and determine additional support needed.

This course is NOT a place to receive help on CSE 142 or 143 programming assignments, rather students will gain extra practice with the core concepts that will allow them to synthesize the material on the assignments independently.

Getting Help

Your first stop for most questions should be our Ed Discussion board, but do not post any part of your homework solutions there (do NOT post all or part of a solution to an assignment, even to ask what is wrong with it. This includes an highly detailed descriptions of your solution to an assignment.) Detailed debugging is best handled in office hours (listed above) or during check ins (in winter and spring).

For questions involving personal matters send email to cse190z-staff mailling list or email the instructor directly.
