Communication:

• Use the message board (see the navigation bar above) for most questions about course content or assignments. If you have a question, so do 20 of your classmates; this makes the discussion visible to everyone.
• Feel free to answer other students' questions; student answers are often crisper than my own.
• "Private" messages on the discussion board are visible to staff only; appropriate for questions containing, e.g., putative answers or detailed code.
• For other issues, (health, personal circumstances, project-partner concerns) email cse401-staff[at]cs (this reaches Ruzzo and all TAs; despite the name, for use it for CSE M 501, too), or, depending on the issue, just email ruzzo[at]cs.

Activities

Lectures: MWF 2:30-3:20 in CSE2 G10, in-person and "livestreamed" via Panopto ; see Masks, Livestreams, and Recordings for more on this. I will try to monitor Panopto's "chat" to answer remote viewer's questions during lecture (but, honestly, I don't always see them...). Recordings will also be available on-demand via Panopto. Lecture slides and other items will be posted, generally before each class, linked from the Calendar page.

Sections: Thursday afternoons. Sections will not be recorded, not because they aren't important, but because the logistics are hard. Attendance is encouraged, but we will make occasional videos of tutorial material, and all section materials will be posted (see the Calendar page).

All in-person activities will follow then-current UW guidelines regarding masks, etc. Please be respectful of others' neeeds.
