Why Piazza?

To help manage questions about the course and assignments, we'll be using Piazza, which is a FREE tool provided to students. Piazza will help ensure consistent and correct answers as well as minimize duplication of effort from repeating answers to the same questions. Piazza is an online tool for course management. We'll be using it for asking and answering questions. Piazza is available to you anywhere you have access to the internet. It is delivered and supported by a company called Piazza. Their home page is: http://piazza.com

CS 367 students can post questions either publicly or anonymously. Students can also answer questions. Instructors might post notes as well as answer questions and endorse student's answers. CS 367 students will need to register for Piazza or, if you've already registered, add CS 367 to your Piazza class list.
