• [03/28] Welcome to STARS CSE 123 Support Course - Spring 2023!

General information

CSE 190z is a support class for STARS students enrolled in CSE 121, CSE 122, and CSE 123 to ensure success. The course will include reinforcing concepts through lecture, quizzes, and pre-work 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 12x 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 or during check ins.

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

You all belong in this class and as such should expect to be treated by your classmates and the course staff with respect. As the course staff it is our goal to provide an interesting and challenging environment that is conducive to your learning. Please report any incidents that occur that challenges this commitment to a supportive and inclusive environment, so we may address the issue. Should you feel uncomfortable bringing up an issue with a staff member directly, there are a number of Community Feedback Mechanisms and Resources including the Anonymous Feedback form, but understand we can not respond to you directly if you do. Responses, if possible, will be broadcast to the class as a whole or systematic changes to the class when necessary.
